Sunday, 17 June 2012:

Reigning 100m world champion Yohan Blake of Jamaica won the 100m crown at the Donovan Bailey Invitational on Saturday in 10.05 seconds.

With no wind recorded, Blake produced a solid performance in Canada only a week after winning a Diamond League 100m race in New York in 9.90 seconds, serving notice he will be a contender at the Jamaican Olympic trials.

Blake defeated American Trell Kimmons by .06 of a second with Jamaican Lerone Clarke third in 10.13 and Norway's Jaysuma Saidy Ndure fourth in 10.15.

Blake will be tested by reigning Olympic 100m and 200m champion and world record-holder Usain Bolt as well as Asafa Powell and a host of other Jamaican sprint stars in his homeland's Olympic trials at the end of the month.
