Jamaica did it not only once but twice again on Sunday, at the 29th Olympic Games in Beijing, China. What did this small island do? Well, Shelly-Ann Fraser managed to win Gold in 10.78 in the 100m Women's final for Jamaica making this the first since 1988 that any country has won gold in both 100m Men and Women's Final. 
Not only did Jamaica manged to get gold but the girls had a sweep in being awarded all the medals; fortunately for us their was no separating Sherone Simpson and Kerron Stewart's time as they both were able to gain silver in a tremendous run especially by Stewart of 10.98 to claim the silver medals. It is the first in history that any country alone has medalled in the finals of 100m and the first that there is a tie in any race. I am sure this is a proud moment for the JA Girls and for Jamaica for finishing 1,2,2 to claim all the medals and to see our flags alone raising to our National Anthem. Well done girls, well done!
