The Electronic Telegraph Saturday 9 June 2001 Tom Knight DWAIN CHAMBERS ran the fastest 100 metres by a European this year to blow away the opposition in last night's Grand Prix Two meeting in Seville. On the same track where he won a World Championship bronze medal, Chambers recorded 10.01sec. There was a blow for fellow Briton Jason Gardener however, who pulled up when leading at the halfway point. But Chambers was left to look back on a performance that left top Nigerian Deji Aliu and American Brian Lewis for dead. In the 400m, Daniel Caines finished sixth - his time of 45.58sec only 0.21sec outside his personal best - but Greg Haughton was the clear winner in 44.58sec. Chris Rawlinson ran his quickest time of the year - 48.91sec - in the 400m hurdles to finish second behind American Eric Thomas. Olympic heptathlon champion Denise Lewis finished second in the 100m hurdles and third in the long jump. The Birchfield Harrier was well ahead until knocking over the sixth hurdle then colliding with the next, which enabled Spain's Raquel Fraguas to win in 13.33sec. Catherine Murphy set a personal best 51.84sec in the 400m, finishing fourth as Michelle Collins won in 50.66sec. Eamonn Condon www.RunnersGoal.com
