National women's sprint hurdler Ackera Nugent has admitted that the prize money was a major motivation for her winning performance at Grand Slam Track in Miami.
Nugent won the short hurdles sprints overall, walking away with the one hundred thousand dollar first-place prize.
It follows a similar feat by world champion Danielle Williams at the Kingston leg.
Nugent, who turned 23 just a few days before the meet, ran 11.09 to win the 100m on Saturday after clocking a season's best 12.34 for third in the 100m hurdles on Friday.
