Jamaica’s Steve Mullings edged American Tyson Gay in a photo-finish in the men’s 100m at the New York Diamond League meeting on Saturday.

Both were timed at 10.26sec, but the review gave the victory to Mullings over the experienced American.

The duel between Mullings and Gay, who train together, came a week after Gay posted the fastest 100m of the season with a 9.79sec at a low-key meeting in Florida.

That was the same day that Mullings clocked 9.80 to win the 100m at the Diamond League meeting on the opposite US coast at Eugene, Oregon.

Chilly, rainy, breezy weather meant those times were unlikely to be challenged at the sixth meeting in the elite Diamond League series.

But the meeting produced plenty of nail-biting finishes, and the men’s 100m, run in a headwind of – 3.4m/sec, was a prime example.

American Danielle Carruthers claimed a narrow victory in the women’s 100m hurdles, holding on for the victory in 13.04sec with fellow American Kellie Wells second in 13.06. Britain’s Tiffany Ofili-Porter was third in 13.11, while Jamaica’s Brigitte Foster-Hylton failed to finish.

Three-time world champion Allyson Felix, of the United States, won the women’s 200m in 22.92, with Bianca Knight second in 22.96 and Shalonda Solomon third in 23.03.

Diamond League leader Jeremy Wariner edged Jamaica’s Jermaine Gonzales at the line to capture the 400m in 45.13, .03 in front of his Caribbean rival with Grenada’s Rondell Bartholomew third in 45.17.

South African Oscar Pistorius, running on metal prosthetics, finished fifth in 45.69.
