Carmelita JETER - U.S.A. - 2007 World Championships 100m bronze medal.

 

The main photo above shows Carmelita during the semi-final of the womens 100m at the 2007 World Championships in Osaka. Jeter produced an excellent performance in the final to win a bronze medal in what proved to be an incredibly tight finish. The inset picture shows the athletes in the closing few metres, with Jamaica's Veronica Campbell (2nd left) pipping Carmelita's compatriot Lauryn Williams (2nd right) to the gold medal, despite both women clocking identical times of 11.01 secs. Jeter (far left) was just 1 hundredth of a second behind in a new PB time of 11.02 secs.
