Jamaica athlete almost broke the 34 -year world record at 200m

Jackson's 21.45 second achievement is only behind the 21.34 second world record by the late Florence Griffith in 1988 in the Seoul Olympic Games. Therefore, the 28 -year -old Jamaica athlete crushed the world award record, surpassing the record of 21.63 seconds of the Dutch foot Dafne Schippers in 2015.

Jackson was in front of her compatriot Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce 0.36 seconds, helping Jamaica win a double gold-silver in this content. The bronze medal belongs to the 2019 champion Dina Asher-Smith.

Just a few seconds after the two athletes Jamaica finished, the Usain Bolt legend posted on Twitter comment: "Excellent", accompanied by two Jamaica flags.

Jackson and Fraser share the two highest positions in the short run, 100m and 200m at this year's World Athletics Tournament. The 28 -year -old athletes are also most appreciated before the race, with the best achievement of 21.55 seconds. But this is the first time she won her personal gold in the world.

At the Tokyo Olympic Games last year, Jackson was also appreciated at a distance of 200m, but did not reach the final. In the qualifying round, she did not do well in the turn and only ranked fourth in Heat. She considered it a "silly mistake", but helped her be motivated to strive at Oregon this year.

Jamaica won five out of the six medals running short distance in this year's tournament. They only slipped 200m copper medal into Asher-Smith. The remaining Jamaica player in this content final is Elaine Thompson-Herah on Saturday with 22.39 seconds.
