The 8 Fastest Ever Men to Run a Diamond League 100m - IAAF Diamond League
Спорт
Over the years, there have been some phenomenal 100m performances in the IAAF Diamond League, including winning runs from Ronnie Baker and Christian Coleman in 2018, Andre de Grasse's wind-assisted 9.69 in Stockholm in 2017 and Justin Gatlin, Tyson Gay, Asafa Powell, Yohan Blake and Usain Bolt 'opening up the throttle' through the years.

Usain Bolt is the fastest man in the world till now, with a record of completing the 100m in just 9.58 seconds.
Bolt and Asafa are clean. Bolt is the only teenager who could have run 19.70 at 15 if he never slowed and had gone all out. Asafa was running extreme fast time long before he knew how fast he is. When you want to talk rubbish. Do your research. No other athlete has run these fast times as junior and then transcend to the senior level. At 15 Usain could have been a medalist. Asafa at 19

I don’t think he will shock the world. Yeah he’s still pretty young but he is way out of his prime. WAY out. As of now, he would have to really try to even get under 10 seconds. I don’t even think he’s gone under 20 seconds at all in the 200m this year. Also, it looks like he’s put on a lot more bulk on his muscles which can slow him - but I’m not sure about that 100%. But don’t worry he still has a year and a half to get up to par again so he cam at least run under 9.90 lmao
