BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) — Tyson Gay has won the Diamond League trophy for the season’s top performer in the 100 meters, finishing in 9.79 seconds to beat Jamaican Nesta Carter by 0.06 seconds.
Gay was looking to beat his personal best of 9.69, the time he shares with Usain Bolt as the second fastest ever, but the weather at the King Baudouin was too damp and unseasonably cold for a top time.
Gay was slow out of the blocks and had to work hard most of the race to get ahead of Carter, whose 9.85 was a personal best.
Another Jamaican, Yohan Blake, was third in 9.91.
Gay’s time of 9.79 was just 0.01 seconds short of his world leading time of 9.78.
