Tyson Gay Sets New American Record

Moments ago Lexington's own Tyson Gay set an American record in the 100m at the World Track & Field Championships. His time of 9.71 was second only to winner Usain Bolt of Jamaica. Bolt set a new World Record at 100m, finishing in 9.58 seconds.

Gay's American Record makes him officially the second fastest human to ever walk the planet, behind Bolt. The Lafayette High School product also gave a shout out to everyone in Lexington in his post-race interview. Meh, decent Sunday afternoon I guess.
