Jamaican Sprinters’ Final Shot to Brussels | Jamaica News

Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description

Jamaican sprinters and field athletes are racing for their final Diamond League spots in Brussels, with Zurich serving as a high-stakes showdown. In the women’s 100m, Tina Clayton, Brianna Lyston, and Jonielle Smith battle Olympic and world champions Julien Alfred and Melissa Jefferson-Wooden, while Sha’Carri Richardson looms large. Points are tight — Clayton sits fourth with 15, Smith eighth with 11 — making every race critical. Meanwhile, Wayne Pinnock and Tajay Gayle duel in long jump, separated by just one point, while Rajindra Campbell leads in shot put and Lamara Distin eyes a high jump podium. Navasky Anderson competes in the men’s 800m, and hurdles stars Ackera Nugent, Danielle Williams, and even already-qualified Rushell Clayton aim to seal their places. Bryan Levell also runs in the men’s 200m — this is it: their last chance to make Brussels.
