Bolt sets record rules again

08 July 2013 [10:37] - TODAY.AZ
amaican sprint sensation Usain Bolt raced to a world-leading time of 19.73 seconds in the 200m at the Diamond League meet in Paris on Saturday.
 
It was the 26-year-old's second outing over his favoured event this season after clocking 19.79sec at Oslo on June 13.
 
In the meantime, American rival Tyson Gay had raced 19.74sec in winning the US championships in Des Moines last month.
 
But Bolt fired another raking broadside Stateside with an emphatic victory in scorching style just one month out from the August 10-18 World Athletics Championships in Moscow.
 
"That's good, I'm happy with myself," said Bolt, the world record holder in both sprint events, and six-time Olympic gold medallist and five-time world champion.
