WATCH: Rhasidat Adeleke cruises to first place finish in 100m race against former Olympic medallist

Irish athlete Rhasidat Adeleke clocked in a stunning 10.84 to beat some of the world’s best 100m runners at the Texas Invitational on Saturday afternoon.

Adeleke’s time would have handily surpassed both her personal best (11.31) and Sarah Lavin’s national record (11.27), but unfortunately cannot be counted as a legal time for record purposes because of wind assistance of 3.5m/s.

The Tallaght sprinter finished ahead of Great Britain’s former European champion and world silver medallist Dina Asher-Smith (11.10), as well as her training partner Julien Alfred (11.15), the world indoor champion over 60m.

Adeleke, 21, is preparing to represent Ireland in the Olympics in Paris this summer, and in May heads for the Bahamas as part of the Irish team for next weekend’s World Relay Championships.
