The 35-year-old Gatlin turned on the gas in the final 20m at Sacramento's Hornet Stadium to reel in Coleman for a convincing win in 9.95sec. But Coleman — who hours earlier had inked a seven-figure sponsorship deal with Nike — was put firmly in his place by the veteran Gatlin, finishing in 9.98sec. Asked if he felt Gatlin still 'had it', Coleman replied: "He never lost it!" TAYLOR FOULSIn the women's 100m, Tori Bowie swept to a comfortable win in 10.94 ahead of Deajah Stevens and Ariana Washington.
