Rio Games Schedule For Jamaica – August 19
The world’s fastest man – Usain Bolt yesterday (August 18) added another Olympic gold medal to his collection after comfortably winning the men’s 200m final at the Olympic Games currently underway in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The legendary sprinter clocked 19.78 seconds to cross the finish line ahead of Adnre De Grasse of Canada who clocked 20.02s.
Bolt has now earned 8 gold medals at the games and is one medal shy of achieving the ‘triple-triple’ – winning the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay for a third consecutive time at the Olympic Games.
