The 110m hurdles world record set by Aries Merritt at the Memorial Van Damme in 2012 has been broken today. At the NCAA Championships in Eugene, 20-year-old Ja’Kobe Tharp stormed to 12.75, taking five hundredths off Merritt’s mark. Sensational! Awesome run, Ja’Kobe!
But Aries, your performance and your legacy at the Memorial will always stand tall. You remain a true legend!
