Bolt Fires To 100m Victory In Ostrava by Sirlegendy(m): 10:01pm On Jun 28, 2017
Jamaican sprint superstar Usain Bolt fired to
victory in the 100m in Ostrava on Wednesday
in a modest 10.06 seconds, in what was his
first appearance in Europe in his farewell
season. “I love this crowd’s high energy. That’s why I
come back here. I love you,” said Bolt, in his
ninth appearance in the northeastern Czech
city. “I’m not happy with the time, but I’m getting
into it.” Bolt, winner of eight Olympic and 11 world
gold medals, will bring down the curtain on his
glittering career at August’s world
championships in London. He again proved to have not lost any of his
showman’s charisma as he played to the sell-
out 15,000-capacity crowd at the Mestsky
Stadium when introduced in hot, humid
weather. The field was a kind one for Bolt, only Jak Ali
Harvey, previously of Jamaica but now
representing Turkey, having gone below
10sec. Starting in lane five, Bolt was somewhat tardy
in getting up and out of the blocks, the 100
and 200m world record holder easily matched
by Cuban Yunier Perez outside him over the
opening half of the race. As the crowd roared, so Bolt responded as he
has so many times before, moving into his
famed “drive phase”, head coming slowly up
as part of the process that unleashes the full
power from his long legs. For a flash moment, Perez looked like he might
have had the better of the towering Jamaican,
but it was not to be as Bolt powered home with
a knowing look across to the Cuban from 20
metres out. Bolt ripped through the finish line, eyes glued
on the stadium’s big screen at the end of the
100m track. Perez came in second in a personal best of
10.09sec, with Bolt’s winning time far off his
world record of 9.58sec, set back at the Berlin
world championships in 2009. The Jamaican has consistently been a beacon
for clean athletes amid doping and corruption
scandals that mired Sebastian Coe’s first couple
of years in office as IAAF president. His absence from the sport will leave a void that
will be tough to fill, as shown by the hero’s
send-off he was afforded by the Ostrava crowd
after the Jamaican anthem was played.
