The Jamaican was into his running quickest and well ahead before taking the fourth hurdle down. That cut his lead slightly but didn’t affect his rhythm; the Olympic champion kept it together to hold off the late charge of Pascal Martinot-Lagarde to win in 13.08 to qualify for the final set for 3 pm JA time/4 pm ET today.

Jamaicans Andrew Riley, Orlando Bennett, Ronald Levy all crashed out in their semi-final heat.
