Lerone Clarke upstages Asafa in Birmingham

Jamaica Observer

Saturday, February 18, 2012



JAMAICA's Commonwealth 100 metres champion Lerone Clarke upstaged his fellow-Jamaican Asafa Powell by winning the men's 60 metres in 6.47 seconds today. Another Jamaican, Nesta Carter, was second with former world 100 metres record holder Powell finishing third.

Former Olympic high hurdles champion Liu Xiang of China defeated the 2008 Beijing gold medallist Dayron Robles in their first race since the Cuban was disqualified for obstructing Liu at last year's world championships.

Liu clocked 7.41 seconds in the 60 metres hurdles, nine hundredths of a second ahead of Robles.
