Jeter becomes the second fastest woman in history. (10.64)
last week she ran 10. 69
SHANGHAI, Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- Carmelita Jeter, the 2009 world championship 100 meters bronze medalist, posted the world's fourth fastest time ever, clocking 10.64 seconds in the Shanghai Golden Grand Prix here on Sunday. She also became the second fastest woman in history, only after fellow American and world record holder Florence Griffith-Joyner. The result was the fourth fastest on the all-time list. Griffith-Joyner clocked three faster times, 10.49, 10.61 and 10.62,all in 1988. American Marion Jones was the third fastest in 10.65. Jeter has maintained a super form, clocking 10.67 seconds in the season's final event in Greece. Veronica Campbell-Brown of Jamaica, who upset the American in Beijing and Berlin, was second in 10.89 and Chandra Sturrup of Bahamas was third in 11.03. "I started well today and the track was comfortable," said the30-year-old Jeter. On the Griffith-Joyner's world records, she said, "It was a great record. I am now closer to it."
