Australia's Torrie Wilson sets meet record en route to 200m Diamond League win in China

Women’s 200 meters. First outing in the 200 metres for Richardson. What can she produce here? Terry going very well indeed, but she’s got her in her sight. Such a good bend runner. Also going one on the outside. Tory Lewis and on the inside battle as well coming through. But Richardson with a little bit of work to do here, she’s got it chased down her American teammate and she has done that. She’s just easing up in the end 2295. Lewis coming strongly in the end, there’s a photo finish, all eyes on Richardson, who still has the time to see if she looks good for the cameras. Yes, you do. But Lewis out of picture. Actually, from her point of view, we said she started well. Tory Lewis, only 19 years old, finished really strongly and you can throw a blanket after over Lewis, Richardson, Clark and battle. That was close there and maybe a battle. She wasn’t messing around. She really got to it, I always feel. Richardson runs a relaxed bend and then tries to find her running and she couldn’t quite manage it. At the moment of the photo, finish has been given to the young Australian Tory Lewis. That’s the run of her career. Wow, what a moment. Let’s look at it again. Richardson a little bit sluggish out of the blocks. At this stage we can’t really see. Lewis But there she is, bottom of picture coming through very strongly and that is not easy to do from lane 9. I think it was a wonderful start from a Navy a battle and I wonder if she put the pressure on Clark and Richardson and they realized that she was right there. But Richardson, she she always seems to find that extra gear as we get towards the championships, but she just is very relaxed around the bend. She’s a good bend runner and she converts well into the straight. But Tory Lewis, perhaps with a nice gentle bent in lane 9, just had the nicer lane jaw from that point of view when your absolute limit. But Lewis, just total focus here. The Australian would have known. She’s got wonderful opportunity at 19 years old to have a lane in the Diamond League, even if it is lane 9. She stuck to her task and that relaxation in the last 50 metres and Lewis can hardly believe it. Yet you have won a Diamond League.
