All hail Blessing Okagbare, the reigning Commonwealth queen. She won Gold in the Women’s 100m for Nigeria in the Commonwealth in a time of 10.85 seconds. This feat is a new Games record, making her the second fastest woman of all time in World 100 metres.
Blessing beat Jamaica’s Veronica Campbell-Brown, Kerron Stewart and England’s Asha Phillip who came second, third and fourth respectively. Blessing becomes the first Nigerian winner of this title since Mary Onyali back in 1994.
Congratulations Blessing!
