Julien Alfred of Saint Lucia delivered a stunning performance at the Monaco Diamond League, clocking an impressive 10.79 seconds to win the women’s 100m—despite running into a strong -1.4 m/s headwind.
The 2024 Paris Olympic Champion showed her dominance from the blocks to the finish, pulling away from a quality field and reaffirming her status as one of the world’s top sprinters.
Trailing Alfred, Jacious Sears finished second in 11.02s, while Zoe Hobbs claimed third place with 11.12s, continuing her impressive international form.
Alfred's time is not only one of the fastest in the world this year under such conditions, but also a bold statement ahead of the upcoming global championships.
