200M
SUCH ARE Usain Bolt’s high standards, he was slightly disappointed after clocking 19.78 to win his third consecutive 200m gold. “I’m always happy to win but wanted to run a bit faster,” he said. “I wanted to break the world record.”
Ultimately, this was one of Bolt’s most convincing victories. He beat Andre De Grasse again as the Canadian ran 20.02 after previously clocking a 19.80 PB in the semi-finals.
