SPRINTER Kemba Nelson hit top form at the Doha Wanda Diamond League in Qatar yesterday.

Nelson clocked a wind-assisted (2.5mps) 10.88 seconds to win the women's 100 metres. She got off to a flying start and kept pulling away from her rivals. Italy's Zaynab Dosso, the World Indoor 60m champion, was second in 11.01, with third going to Patrizia van der Weken of Luxembourg in 11.05.

Nelson was very happy with her time.
