The 24-year-old blasted round the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines velodrome in 10.029 seconds during qualifying to lay down a marker ahead of the final on Sunday.
Her sizzling ride came after newly-minted Keirin gold medallist Andrews clocked 10.108 to better the previous world best (10.154) set by Canada's defending Olympic champion Kelsey Mitchell in 2019.
