Who is the fastest man in the world? Fred Kerley wins World Championships 100m

Fred Kerley is the fastest man in the world after leading USA to a 1-2-3 in the 100m at the World Athletics Championships.

Kerley took gold in 9.86 seconds, beating both Marvin Bracy and the 2021 U.S. champion, Trayvon Bromell. The difference between second and third was just 0.002.

But it represented a clean sweep podium finish for the hosts – the first time that has happened since 1991.

Kerley didn’t get off to a great start in Lane four next to Bracy, who had a lead with about 40 meters to go. But Kerley recovered and powered through the line to pip Bracy leaned at the finish with Bromell in the photo finish too.

What a race
