SEOUL, South Korea (AP) Justin Gatlin of the United States won 100 meters in 9.93 seconds on Wednesday at a meet in Daegu, South Korea.

American sprinter Carmelita Jeter won 100, covering the distance in 11.11 seconds and extending her yearlong domination of the event ahead of the London Olympics this summer.
