Jamaica maintained their dominance in the sprints at the WC when they won two gold medals. The medals came in the men's and women's 4X100 relays. With the Americans disqualified from both events, it was much easier for the Jamaicans. The team of Simone Facey, Shelly-Ann Fraser, Aleen Bailey and Kerron Stewart showed excellent baton changes to win the women's event easily over the Bahamas. In the men's event, the team of Steve Mullings, Michael Frater, Usain Bolt and Asafa Powell stormed to a new championship record of 37.31, even with a mix up between Frater and Bolt on the third leg. Usain later said that he feeling very tired as he was not in the best shape right now. Well, Mr. Bolt if you are not in the best shape and you broke two world records, then one wonders what it will be like when you are a 100%. Congratulations are in order for Bolt on his incredible runs at the WC, he is truly a legend in my eyes.

The women have also been exceptional at the WC, winning more medals than the men. Overall, our athletes have made us very proud. I always lament this, but it is such a pity that our leaders have not taken the steps to clean up our country of crime and political tribalism, which is killing us daily.

Tomorrow, we look forward to the women's 4X400 relays where we hunt another medal. Unfortunately the men's team has not made it to the final. You can't win them all. But we are still very proud of everyone who has competed at the WC. Big up Jamaica....One Love...
