Jamaica’s Usain Bolt wins men’s 100
Usain Bolt of Jamaica is the world’s fastest man.
Again.
With a huge crowd in the Olympic Stadium roaring and a worldwide audience watching, Bolt blazed through 100 meters in 9.63 seconds, setting an Olympic record as he won his second straight gold medal in the showcase event of the Games.
Putting to rest all the rumors that he was injured after he lost twice to teammate Yohan Blake at the Jamaican Olympic trials, Bolt emphatically outdid a strong and deep field to reach the line first and break the Olympic record of 9.69 he set at Beijing four years ago.
