[YONHAP] </div> </div> Joel Jin Nwamadi set the fastest time by a Korean this season to claim the men's 100-meter title at the National Athletics Championships in Jeongseon County, Gangwon, on Tuesday &#8212; though the wind-aided 10.09 seconds will not count as an official record. Despite a slow start, Nwamadi surged late to cross the line first, followed by Biwesa Daniel Kashama, who finished second at 10.13, edging out Lee Jae-seong, who also clocked 10.13 but lost second place by 0.005 seconds in a photo finish. Nwamadi's 10.09 record, a personal best, falls just 0.02 seconds short of the now-retired Kim Kuk-young's national record of 10.07, set in 2017. However, the results will not count as official records. A tailwind of 2.7 meters per second was recorded during the final, exceeding the legal limit of 2.0 meters per second for record ratification. Nwamadi has now had two strong performances invalidated by wind this season &#8212; he ran 10.08 at the Yoshioka Memorial Izumo Meet in Japan on April 11, but that too was wind-aided at 3.5 meters per second. The stakes were high beyond the championship title. The meet effectively served as a selection trial for the Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan, from September to October, with the Korea Association of Athletics Federations set to select the Asian Games squad next week. Under federation guidelines, athletes who achieve season-best times at the championships or during the season are given priority selection consideration. The benchmarks for priority selection are 10.10 seconds for first priority, 10.22 seconds for second priority and 10.24 seconds for third priority. Had Nwamadi's 10.09 been ratified, he would have claimed the top priority spot, but the wind ruling disqualifies it. As of Tuesday, Kashama holds the top official season-best with his 10.13 run in Japan last month, making him the front-runner for priority selection. The second-fastest official time this season belongs to Nwamadi, who ran 10.19 at a meet in Mokpo, South Jeolla, on April 30. The federation has yet to confirm how many athletes will be entered in the men's 100 meters and 200 meters at the Asian Games, with that decision also to be made by the committee next week. At the previous Asian Games in Hangzhou, Korea sent two athletes each in the 100 meters and 200 meters. The federation also plans to build its 400-meter relay squad primarily from the athletes selected for the individual sprint events.
