Usain Bolt Wins 100m Race In Monaco

Usain Bolt; world's fastest man
Eight-time Olympic champion Usain Bolt ran his
first sub-10-second time of the year to win the
100m at the Diamond League in Monaco.
The 30-year-old Jamaican clocked 9.95 in his
final Diamond League race to beat America’s
Isiah Young (9.98) and South African Akani
Simbine (10.02).
Britain’s CJ Ujah ran 10.02 to claim fourth.
Elsewhere Britain’s Laura Muir was comfortably
beaten by Kenyan Hellen Obiri in the women’s
3,000m.
Bolt has confirmed he will run the 100m and
4x100m relay at the World Championships in
London in August, his final event before retiring.
With two weeks to go until the event, this was
arguably Bolt’s toughest test since he won
double Olympic gold at Rio 2016.
The global icon laboured to victory in 10.06 in
Ostrava last month but finally dipped under the
10-second mark against a much tougher field in
Monaco on Friday.
In his final race before London 2017, which
takes place from 4-13 August, Bolt showed
signs he could well bow out with yet another
gold medal.
