Asafa Powell (born November 11, 1982) is a Jamaican sprinter and the current world record holder in the 100m race.
He was one of the favorites for the 100m at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, but finished only fifth in the final. He later redeemed himself by breaking the 100m world record in Athens on June 14, 2005. He recorded a time of 9.77 seconds, beating the previous record of 9.78 seconds, set by American Tim Montgomery in 2002.
