AMERICA’S CHRISTIAN COLEMAN lit up last night’s Diamond League meet in Brussels with a blistering run in the men’s 100m final.
Coleman, 22, clocked a winning time of 9.79 — making him the seventh-fastest man ever over the distance.
The time is also the fastest on record in more than three years since Usain Bolt won World Championship gold, also in 9.79, in August 2015.
Ronnie Baker (9.93) and Yohan Blake (9.94) took silver and bronze respectively.
