6月14日，在希臘雅典舉行的國際田聯(lián)超級(jí)大獎(jiǎng)賽男子百米決賽中，22歲的牙買加小將阿薩法·鮑威爾表現(xiàn)出色，以9秒77打破了男子100米短跑的世界紀(jì)錄。外電報(bào)道如下：Asafa Powell set a world record in the men's 100 metres Tuesday, registering 9.77 seconds at the Tsiklitiria Super Grand Prix meeting.
The Jamaican, who finished fifth in 9.94 at the 2004 Athens Games on the same track, shaved one hundredth of a second off Tim Montgomery's record of 9.78 set in Paris in 2002. Montgomery's record already was at risk because he faces doping charges. The previous record was 9.79 set by Maurice Greene on the Athens track in 1999.
Powell, 22, already had the world's fastest time this year, a run of 9.84 seconds at the Jamaica International Invitational on May 8. He also ran a 9.85 on June 9 in the Czech Republic. His run Tuesday came with a tailwind of 1.6 metres per second, well below the legal limit of 2.0.
Tailwind表示“（從后面吹來的）順風(fēng)”，多指飛機(jī)、船只等運(yùn)載工具向與風(fēng)吹一致的方向行駛。
鮑威爾的成績打破了此前由美國選手蒙哥馬利保持的9秒78的原男子百米世界記錄。原記錄是蒙哥馬利2002年在法國巴黎進(jìn)行的田徑大獎(jiǎng)賽中創(chuàng)造的。鮑威爾的新記錄得到了國際田聯(lián)的官方認(rèn)可，是在風(fēng)速為每秒1.6m的條件下創(chuàng)造，他在槍響瞬間的反映速度是0.150秒。
