Jamaica eye rare men’s, women’s 100m U20 titles

For the past four World Under-20 Championships, Jamaican women have ruled supreme in the 100 metres, with Briana Williams winning gold in 2018, Tina Clayton claiming back-to-back titles in 2021 and 2022, and Alana Reid taking the crown at the last staging in Lima, Peru. Jamaica have won the men’s blue-riband event on just two occasions, with Dexter Lee capturing back-to-back titles in 2008 and 2010.
