Australia’s fastest woman Torrie Lewis has made another stunning sprint breakthrough in the run-up to the Olympics by beating the world 100m champ and powering to a stunning 200m triumph at the season’s opening Diamond League meeting in China. On a night in Xiamen when Armand Duplantis was setting another world pole vault record of 6.24 metres, Australia’s own soaring star led the undercard with her brilliant half-lap victory over American stars Sha’Carri Richardson and Tamara Clark.
Torrie Lewis’s unthinkable act against world champion Sha’Carri Richardson. After her brilliant home-based campaign, when she became the Australian 100m record holder with her 11.10sec run in Canberra in January, 19-year-old Lewis made it an individual Diamond League debut to remember on Saturday. She clinched a wholly unexpected win from way out in lane nine, beating her idol Richardson, the 100m world champion, and Clark after a fine start.
