Usain Bolt to compete at World Athletics Final »

The world’s fastest man, Usain Bolt, will run the 200 meters at the IAAF Athletics Final next month in Greece. The Jamaican sprinter shattered world records in the 100 and 200 meters at the world championships earlier this month in Berlin. He clocked 9.58s in the 100 and 19.19s in the 200 to improve the times he set in winning gold medals at last year's Beijing Olympics. Bolt contested the 200 meters at three meetings this season and was automatically qualified for the race, which will take place on September 13 in Thessaloniki, Greece. Bolt last competed in the world final in 2006 when he came third in the 200 with a time of 20.10 seconds in Stuttgart.
