Tina Clayton led a Jamaican 1-2 in the 100 metres at the world junior championships in Colombia on Wednesday, sending out a message that the Caribbean island nation’s dominance of women’s sprinting is unlikely to end any time soon.
The 17-year-old comfortably defended the under-20 title she won in Nairobi last year in a time of 10.95 seconds, with her school mate Serena Cole edging American Shawnti Jackson for silver at Cali’s Pascual Guerrero Stadium.
