(NBC Sports) – Sha’Carri Richardson edged Shericka Jackson in a 100m at a Diamond League meet in Silesia, Poland, in a world championships preview on Sunday.

Richardson clocked 10.76 seconds, overtaking Jackson by two hundredths.

Jackson is the world’s fastest woman this year — 10.65 seconds from last weekend’s Jamaican Championships — but is 0-2 against Richardson this year. Richardson ran a personal-best 10.71 last week at the USA Track and Field Outdoor Championships and is undefeated at the distance this year.

They are the favorites for August’s world championships in Budapest. Reigning world champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce of Jamaica has yet to race a 100m this year.

1st Sha’Carri Richardson-10.76

2nd Sherika Jackson-10.78

3rd Ewa Swobodo-10.94

4th Twanisha Terry-10.99

5th Daryll Neita -11.01
