Jones cruises to victory

Jones has dominated the Golden League

Action from the IAAF Grand Prix final in Paris.

Men's 100m

Tim Montgomery beat the world record with an astonishing run of 9.78 seconds to win the Grand Prix final in Paris.

He beat Dwain Chambers, who ran a lifetime best 9.87 to equal Linford Christie's British record and finish second.

"I worked all my life for this. I can't believe it," Montgomery said.

Women's 100m

Marion Jones cruised to victory after main rival Zhanna Pintusevich-Block was disqualified for two false starts.

The Ukrainian seemed too anxious to get a good start and clearly jumped the gun on both occasions.

Deprived of her main rival, Jones looked comfortable during the run, powering to the front at the 60m mark and looking in no danger of losing her 16-race unbeaten run.

The American clocked 10.88 seconds to beat Debbie Ferguson of the Bahamas.

Men's 1500m

Hicham El Guerrouj celebrated his 28th birthday by dipping under three minutes 30 seconds for the 28th time in his career.

The world record holder clocked 3:29.27 - but his celebrations at winning the overall title were overshadowed by Montgomery's unexpected performance.
