En la carrera se impuso a Michael Rodgers y Kemar Bailey-Cole…que llegaron en ese orden…en el Estadio Olimpico de Londres y el marco de los llamado Anniversary Games….
Usain Bolt appears to be rounding into form. Just in time, too.
The Jamaican clocked 9.87 seconds in two 100m races in a little over an hour at a Diamond League meet in London on Friday night, on a rain-soaked track and into a headwind.
“Overall, it was a good run, but the start was really poor,” Bolt said on the BBC of his final win into a 0.8 m/s headwind (video here). “My coach keeps telling me, relax and it flow. But I really wanted to run faster.”
Bolt showed medal-worthy form for the first time since 2013.
His performances — an hour before the final, Bolt won his preliminary heat in 9.87 into a 1.2m/s headwind (video here) — upped anticipation for a showdown with American Justin Gatlin at the World Championships in Beijing
