No stopping Powell

ZURICH : Asafa Powell equalled his 100m World record at the Weltklasse Golden League meet on a balmy Friday night, the third time he has run the distance in 9.77 seconds.

``I'm the only one who has ever run 9.77 three times. I ran a world record three times. If I'm going to continue to run 9.77 for the rest of career it's not a bother to me.''

Powell led from the start to finish and was followed by two Americans — Tyson Gay in a personal best of 9.84 and Leonard Scott in his season-best 9.97. Powell has won all four of his Golden League events and is among nine athletes vying for a share in the $1 million jackpot. — AP
