Former world record holder and Olympic relay gold medallist Asafa Powell and long jumper Demar Forbes were the only Jamaican winners at Saturday’s inaugural Grenada Invitational held at the renamed Kirani James Stadium in St George’s, Grenada.

Powell won the men’s international 100m, while Forbes won the men’s long jump event at the meet that was also an Area Permit event.

Powell clocked 10.18 seconds (0.7 m/s) to win the men’s international 100m race ahead of Andrew Fisher of Bahrain (10.26 seconds) and Barbados’ Levi Cadogan (10.27 seconds).

Michael Frater was sixth in 10.46 seconds.

Forbes, many times Jamaican champion and World Championships and Olympic Games finalist, had a best jump of 7.92 metres (-0.1 m/s) on his final attempt after jumping 7.87m, a mark that would also have given him the gold ahead of American Melvin Echard (7.86m) and Grenadian Decathlete Kurt Felix (7.47m).

Andrew Riley was second in the men’s 110m hurdles in a wind-aided 13.46 seconds (3.0 m/s), beaten by Barbados’ Shane Brathwaite (13.43s), while another Jamaican, Deuce Carter, finished sixth in 18.25 seconds.

Carter, a semi-finalist at the Rio Olympics, was challenging for a podium place until he hit the eighth hurdle hard and finished at the back of the field.

Leah Nugent was second in the women’s 400m hurdles in a season’s best 54.88 seconds, behind American Ashley Spencer’s world leading 54.78 seconds, with Turks and Caicos’ Yanique Haye-Smith third in 57.12.
