<p>Usain Bolt's training partner Kemar Bailey-Cole took advantage of the Olympic champion's absence to coolly grab the 100 metres gold at the Commonwealth Games on Monday but Veronica Campbell Brown failed to seal a Jamaican double.<br /><br /></p>.<p>With the six-time Olympic champion and world record holder Bolt only competing in the 4x100 relay after an injury-hit season, the 22-year-old Bailey-Cole seized his chance and sped to victory in a time of 10 seconds flat at Hampden Park.<br /><br />"I didn't feel any pressure, I just went out there and executed my own race, but it wasn't that perfect," he told reporters. "I train with Usain Bolt but the friendship is not that close."<br /><br />Bailey-Cole made a slow start on a blustery Glasgow evening but his long stride helped him claw his way back into the main group and he powered past England's Adam Gemili, who finished second in a time of 10.10 seconds. Jamaican Nickel Ashmeade claimed bronze.<br /><br />"From the start it wasn't good but the rest of it was OK," added the lanky Bailey-Cole, whose running style is not dissimilar to Bolt. "The coaches out there just told me to go out and win and I did exactly that.<br /><br />"I just listened to the coach, who says even if I don't get a good start just hold my composure and drive right through.<br /><br />"The aim was to come out here and win and I did just that. I said to myself, 'these guys can't beat me'".Campbell-Brown, cleared in February of a doping violation which had led to a suspension, was beaten by Blessing Okagbare in the women's 100 final.<br /><br />The Nigerian, who has dyed her hair golden, stormed to victory in a Games record 10.85 seconds ahead of Campbell-Brown and fellow Jamaican Kerron Stewart. It was the second fastest time this year.<br />"It is an honour and the reaction back home is going to be absolutely amazing," Okagbare said. <br />"All my preparations have been based on these Commonwealth Games so I had expected to run a fast time and I am so happy I can't explain.<br /><br />There was, however, further glory for Jamaica when O'Dayne Richards scooped gold in the men's shotput while Sultana Frizell of Canada hurled herself to glory in the women's hammer.<br /><br /><br />Results: <br /><br />Men: 100M: Kemar Bailey-Cole (Jamaica) 10.00 seconds, 1; Adam Gemili (England) 10.10, 2; Nick Ashmeade (Jamaica) 10.12, 3.<br /><br />Shot put: O’Dayne Richards (Jamaica) 21.61 metres, 1; Tom Walsh (New Zealand) 21.19, 2; Tim Nedow (Canada) 20.59, 3.<br /><br />Women: 100M: Blessing Okagbare (Nigeria) 10.85 seconds, 1; Veronica Campbell-Brown (Jamaica) 11.03, 2; Kieron Stewart (Jamaica) 11.07, 3.<br /><br />Hammer throw: Sultana Frizell (Canada) 71.97 metres, 1; Julia Ratcliffe (New Zealand) 69.96, 2; Sophie Hitchon (England) 68.72, 3.</p>
