BUDAPEST, Hungary -- Asafa Powell won the 100-meter race in 9.86 seconds at the Hungarian Grand Prix (Gyulai István memorial), the fastest run in the country.
The Jamaican was the only competitor to run under 10 seconds on Saturday, finishing ahead of Ngonidzashe Makusha of Zimbabwe and Andres Hinds of Barbados.
"I could have gone a lot faster today, but I was working on some stuff," said Powell, whose personal best is 9.72. "It was cold and I was a bit cautious. It was still a good time."
