Double dash win for Nagel
After a false start, Morne Nagel came off the first curve of the men's 200 metres strongly and quickly neutralized the stagger against Germany's Sebastian Ernst running on his outside. The final straight was one of power, as the South African zoomed to the world lead in the one-lap race with 20.63 while Ernst, having just recovered from a cold, came home a distant second with 21.03.
The other section of the 200 was won by Poland's Marcin Jedrusinski with 20.86 over Germany's Alexander Kosenkow at 21.21.
Earlier in the evening, Nagel was one of the first away in the men's 60 metres, as he clocked 6.64 for a double win, holding off a final surge by Nigeria's Chinedu Oriala at 6.67.
The next three places were tightly packed, with Germany's Ronny Ostwald besting Vyacheslav Muravyev of Kazakhstan, both at 6.69, and Jedrusinski, who also doubled, just behind in 6.70.
