Run of 10.00sec only bettered by Patrick Johnson in 2003Leah O’Brien also in fine form at national championships
Lachie Kennedy became the second-fastest Australian over 100m with a time of 10 seconds flat in the open’s heats at the national championships in Perth on Friday.
His performance followed two times of 9.99s by 17-year-old Gout Gout the previous day that went unrecorded due to tailwinds amid a series of searing 100m runs at this meet, underlining Australia’s depth in talent in both men’s and women’s sprinting.
