Nesta Carter yesterday assumed the position as the third fastest Jamaican, when he ran a smart 9.86 seconds to win the men's 100-metre dash in Lucerne, Switzerland.
Carter, who has run sparingly this season because of injury, beat American Walter Dix, who was timed in 9.88 seconds.
American JMee Samuels was third in 10.03 seconds.
Carter becomes only the third Jamaican to run faster than 9.90 seconds after Asafa Powell and Usain Bolt, and pushes Yohan Blake (9.95) to fourth all-time on the list.
