Raymond Douglas Stewart (born 18 March 1965 in Kingston, Jamaica) is a former Jamaican athlete who specialised in the 100 metres event.

As a junior athlete Stewart found much success at the CARIFTA Games, winning five gold medals within a four-year period.

A new personal best of 9.97 seconds at the NCAA Outdoor Championships made him the number one ranked 100 m athlete in 1989 and the first Jamaican to officially break the 10-second barrier.

Stewart had a career that lasted almost twenty years, competing at four successive Olympic Games and six World Championships.

His 100 m personal best of 9.96 seconds makes him the fifth fastest Jamaican sprinter in the event, after Usain Bolt, Asafa Powell, Nesta Carter and Yohan Blake.

He won the 200 m event in the same category in 21.13 s. A bronze medal with the 4 × 100 m relay team was earned with a time of 41.28 s.[3] At the inaugural World Championships in Helsinki Stewart, only 18 years old, finished fifth in heat two of the 100 m semi final.

[12] Running the anchor leg for the 4 × 100 m relay team he earned a bronze medal in 38.41 s.[13] Stewart finished the season ranked number four in the world.

[6][7] At the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, Stewart came eighth in the 100 m final despite qualifying fourth fastest from the semi-finals; his time of 12.26 was a result of slowing down before the end due to a leg injury.

[6][7] At the World Championships in Tokyo Japan, Stewart recorded his personal best 9.96 s in the 100 m final, leading the race at the 50 m mark, and was equal first at 60 m.[19] However his effort was only good enough for sixth place.

[30] On 13 April 2008 the New York Times published an article in which Stewart was implicated by Angel Guillermo Heredia for the use of human growth hormone.

A copy of an e-mail message from July 2003 was shown to the Times, in which Herdia described drugs he had recommended for two athletes trained by Stewart.

When contacted Stewart initially denied knowing Herdia but then said that they had met after being shown a copy of the e-mail.

[33] At the New York launch of the 2009 Penn Relays, Stewart was honoured by Team Jamaica Bickle for his contribution to athletics.
