TOKYO — There is now a successor to Usain Bolt. Lamont Marcell Jacobs of Italy ran a 9.80-second 100 meters to win the gold medal on Sunday night at Tokyo Olympic Stadium. It marked the first time since 2004 that anyone other than Bolt, who retired in 2017, has been the Olympic champion in the men’s event. Who was fastest at each meter Fastest Slowest 0 25 50 75 100 4th Simbine 9.93 1st Jacobs 9.80 Hughes DQ 2nd Kerley 9.84 6th Su 9.98 5th Baker 9.95 Adegoke DNF 3rd de Grasse 9.89 Note: Zharnel Hughes was disqualified, and Enoch Adegoke did not finish. · The New York Times Without Bolt, it was a wide-open race: Nearly everyone in the starting blocks had a shot at victory. A false start caused Zharnel Hughes of Britain to be disqualified, and Enoch Adegoke of Nigeria did not finish; the remaining six competitors all clocked times under 10 seconds. Fred Kerley of the United States won silver, four-hundredths of a second behind Jacobs, and Andre de Grasse of Canada (9:89) won bronze, as he did in Rio. All three of the top finishers achieved personal best times.

Jacobs was running faster than anyone at this point in the race. But Kerley had been a 400-meter runner until switching over to the 100 this year. Specialists in the 400 often make great finishers in the 100, so Kerley appeared to be in good shape.

His peak speed was 26.76 m.p.h. Jacobs, a former Italian long jump champion, had set an Italian 100-meter record in May, at 9.95, and then ran 9.94 in the heats here. He would need to run faster than he ever had over the last 50 meters if he wanted to win. In Lane 8, Adegoke pulled up with an apparent leg injury.

A gold, and a personal best, for Jacobs

With about five meters to go, it looked as if either runner could claim the gold. Kerley was running faster than Jacobs at this point. Both runners leaned hard into the finish line. When the results were posted, Jacobs had raced more than a tenth of a second faster than he ever had before, setting a personal best and claiming both a gold medal and the unofficial title of the fastest man in the world.
