Again!
Olympic and World champion Justin Gatlin has broken Asafa Powell's 11-month-old record in Doha, Qatar, clocking a time of 9.76 seconds, one one-hundredth of a second inside the old record.

Oh my! I knew he ran a fast time the other week, and it was obvious that he could break the record this summer. But I never thought it would be now, the 100m is going mad!

there was something on the radio the last time it was broken, saying 9.50 should be in grasp in a few years time

It's been reclassified as 9.766, and then rounded up to 9.77, so it EQUALS the previous record rather than breaking it completely... clicky
