American Carmelita Jeter set a new meet record 10.81 to beat repeat Olympic champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce at the Birmingham Diamond League a short while ago.
This is the second time in four days that Jeter is beating Fraser Pryce.
In Lausanne on Thursday, Jeter clocked 10.86 the same as Fraser-Pryce but the American edged her on the line to be awarded the win.
Today, Jeter blasted out of the blocks and maintained the lead to the very end.
Fraser-Pryce was second in 10.90.
American Alexandria Anderson was third in 11.22.
Jamaican Aileen Bailey was sixth in 11.24.
