ZAGREB, Croatia (AP) Tyson Gay is expecting "one of the fastest races" of the year when he comes up against Nesta Carter of Jamaica at a Zagreb meet tomorrow, with both sprinters having set the lowest 100-metre time in 2010.
The American ran 9.78 seconds in London on August 13, and Carter matched that time at the Rieti Grand Prix in Italy on Sunday.
Gay beat world-record holder Usain Bolt earlier this month. He said yesterday that his ultimate aim is to win gold at next year's World Championships in Daegu, South Korea.
Gay says "I'm sure Bolt wants it too. But if I do my absolute best, I could beat him."
