LoL , I love how Bolt does his thing just before the races with the poses and all!!!
Whoever criticizes the man in a bad way,as if he’s showing disrespect, should get a life and learn more about track and field…
Chris Brown tried to crash the party set up by Jeremy Wariner and LaShawn Merritt, but alas, the Bahamian’s torrid opening 200 faded when he needed it most.
That left the stage to the two Americans, whose season has developed into one of interesting rivalry.
Merritt, in lane 3, had Wariner, in lane 4, in his sight the entire way, but it made no difference as the Athens Olympic champion easily won against the Beijing champion with a season-best 43.82. Merritt clocked 44.43 as Brown held on for third in 45.05 ahead of Sweden’s Johan Wissman (45.47).
ZURICH: THE LOT:)
Jarmila Kratochvilova’s long-standing 800m WR is at long last looking shaky after Jelimo’s 1:54.01

Wariner ran a very controlled first 200m, Merrit had nearly made up the stagger after 200m, but then Wariner worked the bend and into the straight. Looks like he learnt something from his defeat last week
Nothing strange. Over all the performances are .20-.25 slower than in Beijing. Some guys are both mentally and physically drained therefore they ran slower times with exception of Walter Dix [!!].
How many of them have caught or are in the process of catching cold? I am glad none of the sprinters was injured as this GP meet was way too soon after the games.
But that’s precisely BECAUSE of what he did in Beijing. He’s wiped and should go home- but prob needs the money cause he’s been away from the big paydays for a long time. A lot of people are in that boat and their main job is survival right now!
