Blessing Okagbare won the 200m sprint yesterday night at the Commonwealth Games in Scotland, finishing ahead of English duo Jodie Williams and Bianca Williams with a time of 22.25 seconds.
Though the three British sprinters who took second, third, and fourth place achieved personal best times, they could not best Okagbare, 25, who also won the 100m race on Monday.
"I am happy I won," said Okagbare. "It wasn't favourable weather and running two rounds in one day is new for me." She furthered, "I wanted something faster. I didn't get the time but I got the win and two golds. It's amazing."
