Nesta Carter
On the second day of competition, Chambers (6.51) and Kimmons (6.55) were again the fastest qualifiers in the semi-finals, with Mike Rodgers and Daniel Bailey improving as the rounds progressed. Nesta Carter and Ronald Pognon were the other semifinal leaders, while Francis progressed as a fastest-loser. Ibrahim Kabia and Rodney Green both ran national record times of 6.65 as did 2008 Olympic fourth placer Churandy Martina. However, only Kabia won selection for the final eight. Harry Aikines-Aryeetey, one of the fastest of the season, pulled up with an injury.
