Jamaican sprinter Oblique Seville has won the 100-metre gold medal at the World Athletics Championships. He is the first Jamaican man to win gold in a sprint event since Usain Bolt at the 2016 Olympics. Bolt is the 100-metre world record holder, with a time of 9.58 seconds. Seville won his gold in a personal best of 9.77 seconds. Bolt is Seville's hero and was watching the race with great excitement. It was a good night for Jamaica as Kishane Thompson claimed the silver medal. It was a one-two for the Caribbean nation. Thompson is the fastest man in the world this year.
Seville was overjoyed after his win. He told reporters: "I feel really…excited that the gold is coming home to Jamaica." He added: "I have proved that I am a true competitor, that I have the determination of a champion." He said: "I knew if I had a strong finish, the others would not catch me." He was happy to win in front of Bolt. Seville said: "It is just a tremendous feeling to compete in front of Usain here in Tokyo." He added that: "I have proved, in front of Usain, that I am a champion." Jamaica's one-two finish signals a golden new age for Jamaican sprinting.
