Shericka Jackson trumps Thompson-Herah for Rome 200m win
Shericka Jackson won the women's 200m at the Diamond League meeting in Rome on Thursday, seeing off a star-studded field to claim an impressive victory. Jamaican Jackson clocked 21.91sec to cross well clear of double Olympic gold medallist Elaine Thompson-Herah and reigning world champion Dina Asher-Smith. The 27-year-old won bronze in the 100m in last year's Tokyo Olympics and was part of the 4x100m relay team, alongside Thompson-Herah, which won gold in the Japanese capital.
