Current world leader Tyson Gay and training partner Steve Mullings, the second quickest man this season, will face-off over 100-metres at the adidas Grand Prix, the sixth stop on the IAAF Diamond League series – in New York on Saturday afternoon.

Another exciting race is on the cards and UniversialSports.com will have live streaming coverage online.

Also in the strong line-up are Richard Thompson, Trinidad and Tobago’s Olympic silver medallist and last year’s winner, fellow countryman Keston Bledman and Jamaica’s Nickel Ashmeade, who have all gone faster than 10-seconds this season.
