Jamaica Strikes Again in the 100m – A Decade After Usain Bolt’s Dominance | World Athletics

Ten years after the legendary Usain Bolt retired from competitive sprinting, Jamaica has once again asserted its dominance on the global stage of athletics. At the 2025 World Athletics Championships, the Caribbean sprinting powerhouse proved that the legacy of Bolt is alive and well, as a new generation of Jamaican sprinters blazed their way to victory in the men’s and women’s 100m finals.

The highlight of the event came when Jamaica’s young star Tyrese Clarke stormed to gold in the men’s 100m with a sensational time of 9.77 seconds, the fastest mark of the season and a clear statement that Jamaican sprinting supremacy is far from over. Clarke, just 22, ran with the confidence and flair reminiscent of Bolt’s iconic performances, drawing roars from fans around the world.

In the women’s 100m final, Shericka Jackson and Elaine Thompson-Herah added to Jamaica’s glory, taking gold and silver respectively. Jackson clocked 10.67 seconds, while Thompson-Herah followed closely at 10.72, securing yet another Jamaican one-two finish on the world stage.

For many, this year’s World Championships felt like a symbolic continuation of the golden era Bolt once defined. His last major triumph came at the 2015 Beijing World Championships, and though his retirement in 2017 marked the end of an era, Jamaica’s conveyor belt of sprinting talent has never stopped producing champions.

World Athletics president Sebastian Coe praised Jamaica’s continued excellence, saying, “The island of just under three million people continues to produce the fastest men and women on Earth. It’s a testament to their culture, discipline, and relentless passion for sprinting.”

Fans have drawn comparisons between Clarke’s confident stride and Bolt’s unmatched charisma, sparking conversations online about whether Jamaica has found its next global superstar. Clarke, however, remains humble. “Usain Bolt will always be the greatest,” he said after his victory. “But I’m proud to carry the torch for Jamaica and inspire the next generation.”

With this latest triumph, Jamaica has firmly re-established itself at the pinnacle of world sprinting — proving that even a decade after Bolt hung up his spikes, the island’s legacy of speed, power, and pride continues to shine.

Conclusion:

Jamaica’s dominance in the 100m sprint is no longer just history — it’s the present and the future. Ten years on from Usain Bolt’s reign, the small Caribbean nation continues to produce extraordinary talent, reminding the world that when it comes to sprinting, Jamaica remains the home of champions.
