Jamaican sprint ace Asafa Powell, joint holder of the men’s 100-metre world record, has agreed to compete at the Vardinoyannia 2006 in Rethymno, Crete next week Friday.
Powell has raced undefeated so far this year and his wins include his world record equalling run (9.77 seconds) at the Norwich Union Grand Prix in Gateshead, England on June 11.
The big 23-year-old, who also won at yesterday’s Rome Golden League meet, is also booked to compete at the IAAF’s Stockholm DN Galan Super Grand Prix on July 25.
Powell, who won the Commonwealth Games 100-metre gold medal in Australia in March, also posted fast-time wins this season at the Jamaica International, Prefontaine Classic, Bislett Games Golden League, and the Paris Golden League, where he logged sub-10-second times.
