Justin Gatlin continued his unbeaten streak, while Ethiopian Genzebe Dibaba broke a 22-year world record in the women’s 1500m at a Diamond League meet in Monaco on Friday night.
Gatlin, the favorite to beat Usain Bolt for 100m and 200m World titles in August, won the 100m in 9.78 seconds, beating Tyson Gay by .19. Gatlin is the only man to run 9.80 or better since the start of 2014, and he’s done so six times. The 33-year-old, five years removed from a four-year doping ban, hasn’t lost an individual race since Sept.
