200m Gold double for USA and Felix

Allyson Felix took back-to-back 200 meters world titles with the fastest time for over six years and the biggest winning margin in decades in a major track 200m final.

Felix, of the United States, hauled down the home stretch for a personal best of 21.81 seconds to deny Veronica Campbell a sprint double and matching the win of Tyson Gay in the mens 200m earlier in the competition.

The Jamaican 100m winner came home second in 22.34 but was nowhere near the winner; Susanthika Jayasinghe took bronze, to go with 1997 silver, for Sri Lanka in 22.63 seconds.

Only one medal for Team USA. If it had to be that way then Gold was the one to take home.
