Tyson GayTyson Gay will be taking a crack at Asafa Powell’s 100m dash world record time of 9.77 seconds this coming Friday, August 3rd, 2007 at London’s Crystal Palace venue in the Norwich Union London Grand Prix meet.

Powell has run the 100m Dash in 9.77 seconds three times, first doing so on June 14th, 2005 at the Olympic Stadium in Athens, Greece.

Justin Gatlin has also posted a time of 9.77, but he is currently under a doping suspension, leaving questions as to the validity of his marks. His hearing for a reduction or lifting of his current 8-year ban is set for today.

Gay is having a breakthrough season, having run a time of 9.84 seconds in the 100m Dash and a time of 19.62 seconds in the 200m Dash. Both are world-leading times for 2007:

“I know I still have it in me to run very fast, and I will be aiming to do that at the Norwich Union London Grand Prix. I ran 19.84 for 200 meters on the Crystal Palace track last year so I know how quick it can be.”
