World 100m champion Christian Coleman took the top honors on his first short-sprint appearance at the 114th edition of the Millrose Games that were held on Saturday in the snowy-covered city of New York.
Coleman came back after his 18-month ban for missing three drugs tests and he faced off with the World 200m champion Noah Lyles and Trayvon Bromell, the fastest man over 100m in 2021.
The 25 year-old Coleman cut the tape in 6.49 seconds with Bromell crossing the line in second place in 6.50.
Ronnie Baker closed the first three podium finishes in 6.54 with Lyles coming home fourth in 6.62.
“I felt good in my preparation,” Coleman said. “I was ready to roll.”
The indoor world record holder, was initially banned for two years for his whereabouts failure before his punishment was reduced by the Court of Arbitration for Sport, has not run a competitive 100m since his world championship win in Qatar more than two years ago.
