New Zealand-born Nketia only switched allegiance back to Australia in December but the 24-year-old now has the nation's fastest ever 100m, albeit with an illegal tail-wind. The University of Southern California runner's time at the Mt SAC Relays eclipsed the 9.88 clocked by Patrick Johnson in 2003, which was also ruled out of the records due to a strong tail-wind in Perth.
