Asafa Powell...
Jamaican Asafa Powell set a new men's 100m record of 9.77 seconds at the Athens Olympic Stadium on Tuesday.
The 22 year old has beaten Tim Montgomery's previous best of 9.78, which the American set in Paris three years ago.
He quotes after setting the record:"It shows no-one knows how fast a man can run."
Indeed...
