Fred Kerley was crowned men’s 100 metres world champion after leading an American 1-2-3 on home soil.
On the biggest night of his life, the converted 400m star turned Olympic silver into World gold by edging out Marvin Bracy and Trayvon Bromell in a time of 9.86 seconds.
“We said we were going to do it and we did it,” said the 27-year old Texan. “USA baby! I’m very proud.”
