Jamaica’s dominance in the men’s 110m hurdles shows no signs of slowing down.
At the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games, Demario Prince delivered the race of his career, sprinting to gold in 13.17 seconds and extending Jamaica’s remarkable hold over the event.
The victory marked Jamaica’s fourth consecutive Commonwealth Games title in the men’s sprint hurdles, with the Caribbean nation now unbeaten since 2010. Over the last four editions, the event has become one of Jamaica’s most reliable sources of athletics gold.
Prince’s triumph was particularly impressive considering he entered the Games with only the third-fastest season’s best among the finalists. On the biggest stage, however, rankings counted for little as the Jamaican produced a flawless race, attacking every hurdle with precision before powering clear over the closing metres.
Behind him, England’s Samuel Bennett produced one of the performances of the evening, clocking a personal best of 13.30 seconds to claim the silver medal.
The bronze went to Cyprus’ Milan Trajkovic, the experienced European finalist once again proving his consistency on the international stage.
Final Results
Demario Prince (Jamaica) – 13.17s
Samuel Bennett (England) – 13.30s (Personal Best)
Milan Trajkovic (Cyprus)
For Jamaica, Prince’s victory is another chapter in a rich sprinting legacy. While the nation is synonymous with the flat sprints, it has quietly built an equally formidable tradition in the sprint hurdles, producing champion after champion at major championships.
Prince now joins that lineage, delivering when it mattered most and ensuring the Commonwealth title remains in Jamaican hands for another four years.
For the rest of the field, Glasgow served as another reminder: if you want to win the Commonwealth 110m hurdles title, you still have to beat Jamaica—and once again, nobody could.
