Usain Bolt Beats Justin Gatlin To Win World 100m Title
Featured, Sports News Sunday, August 23rd, 2015
Usain Bolt produced perhaps his greatest performance of all as he put a troubled build-up behind him to beat favourite Justin Gatlin to retain his world 100m title.
The controversial Gatlin came into the final on a 28-race unbeaten run and apparently relishing his role as the sport’s bad guy.
But at the same Bird’s Nest stadium in Beijing where Bolt announced himself to the world with two Olympic golds and two world records in 2008, the Jamaican superstar came past a faltering Gatlin at the death to snatch victory by one hundredth of a second.
