Athletics: Gatlin's Record Upheld
Justin Gatlin's record-equalling time for the 100m has been confirmed by the IAAF.
Justin Gatlin's record-equalling time for the 100m was ratified yesterday by the International Association of Athletics Federations.
The American was originally credited with breaking the world record in 9.76sec at the Qatar Grand Prix on May 12 but the time was rounded up to 9.77, matching Asafa Powell's time in Athens last year.
Powell equalled the mark again on Sunday in Gateshead.
