Jamaican sprint star Usain Bolt made a notable run of his men’s 200m competition to make it eight Olympic Games gold medals in the ongoing Rio Olympics.

Bolt was the only runner in the field to break 20 seconds in wet conditions as he added the 200m title to his 100m crown . The race will be his last as an individual at the Olympic Games unless he should happen to go back on his promise to retire from competition before Tokyo 2020.

Andre de Grasse secured silver for Canada, Christophe Lemaitre of France. clinched the bronze medal while Team Great Britain captain Adam Gemili, who finished in the same time as the bronze medal winner, came fourth.

Gemili appeared to just mis-time his dip for the line and was beaten by millimetres in a three-way run for third place, just edging Churandy Martina of the Netherlands into fifth.

But there was no taking the title away from Bolt, who will go for his ninth Olympic gold in the final of the men’s 4x100m relay on Friday along with his Jamaican team-mates.

Bolt is a constant in 100 or 200m race.

He is like energy. Can never be created nor destroyed.
