Usain Bolt- The fastest runner in the World

Surprisingly, it was an untrained Italian from El Paso, Texas, who won gold in the first Olympic 100m final after Bolt in his 9.80 seconds.

In the nine sprint Olympics running in the Beijing Games he was confident. He was a regime that redefined athletics and left what he called a sports gap. But in a race held by the Olympic monarchy, a Texas-born Italian, who did not break ten seconds ago, came out on top. He was only 26 years old and had his best days in the long jump.

In a scrum with officials who told Tamberi and Barshim that two gold medals could still be won, Qatari Mutaz Essa and Bolt's father agreed to call it out equally.

A month later, in August 2008, Bolt ran 9.69 seconds to win gold at the Beijing Olympics in the 100m, better than his own record. At the 2009 World Championships in Berlin Bolt set a record of 9.58 seconds over the 100m with a top speed of 44.72 km / h per meter (60-80) and a top speed of 23.5 km / h. Automatically, he also set a new world record of 150m, beating his teammates and crossing the line in an impressive 14.35 seconds.

World records were set in Beijing in 2008 by Bolt, the first runner from another Jamaican Don Quarrie to hold both world records in 1976 while breaking world records at 100 and 200 meters in Beijing. At the Reebok Grand Prix 2008 in New York, Bolt set a world record of 9.72 seconds in the 100m, beating world champion Tyson Gay in half a second. At the Beijing Olympics in 2008, which had been held since 1930, Bolt re-recorded his first 200-meter record, setting Michael Johnson who holds the second world record in 1932, and the second at the 1996 Atlanta Games.

In 2009, Jamaican athlete Usain Bolt set a world record of 100 meters of 9.58 seconds. When he retired in 2017, Bolt was 9.69 seconds faster than the 2008 Olympics, his best of over 100m. Bolt set the current 100-meter world record at the IAAF World Championships in 2009 with an impressive 95.8 seconds - a time that has not improved since then.

Jamaican athlete Usain Bolt became the fastest man in Olympic history after winning three gold medals in the 100 and 200 meters at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. She also holds world records in the 100m and 200m sprints for men and is part of the Jamaican quartet 4x100m, which includes Nesta Carter, Michael Frater, and Johan Blake. Although Bolt has always been an Olympic champion, his successful performance at the 2008 Beijing Olympics made him many times the fastest man in history on the world stage.

Jamaican athlete Usain Bolt won three Olympic medals at the London Summer Games in 2012, setting an Olympic record time of 9.63 seconds in 100 meters, making him the first person in history to break three world records at the Olympic Games. . Bolt continued his Olympic gold medal in the 200 meters in 19.78 seconds. At the 2016 Summer Olympics, Bolt returned to Olympic glory where he won gold in the 100-meter race and became the first athlete to win three titles in a row.

China's Su Bingtian became the first Chinese to reach the men's 100m final and set a new Asian record as the fastest finalist with a time of 98.3 seconds. He was relieved when another American, Trayvon Bromell, arrived in Tokyo at the best of times of the season and was considered a heavy favorite but failed to make the 100-meter final. Bromell ran two of the world's fastest 100 relapses a year before the start of the Olympics.

All three medalists broke the Olympic record in the men's 400m relay in Tokyo on Tuesday. The current men's 9.58-second record, set in 2009 by Jamaican Usain Bolt, and the women's record of 10.49 seconds, set in 1988 by American Florence Griffith-Joyner, remains unbroken. In 2008, Bolt hit ten seconds in his final season; in 2017, he was 13 times more than 10 seconds.

On Sunday 16 August 2009, Jamaican Usain Bolt became the world's fastest runner when he ran the 100 meters in a world record time of 9.58 seconds. Although Bolt retired in 2017 after losing to two Jamaican athletes, he still holds the 100 official men's and 200-meter world records set at the 2009 World Championships in Berlin. No one else, not even Bolt himself, managed to pass that time.

The fastest time ever set in direction was the 9.58 seconds set by Bolt of his country at the 2009 World Championships in Berlin. Bolt broke the long-held record set by the famous American athlete Michael Johnson at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics in 19.32 seconds and is still holding on to Berlin. Usain Bolt also holds men's world records at 100 and 200 meters sprint and tightened a large 4x100 meters relay that took one pumpkin on the track.

One man may have retired, but his absence from the Tokyo Olympics has taken the place of a deep field and he is determined to fight for the world's fastest man title on Sunday. Usain Bolt's third consecutive gold medal in the 100 meters men has cemented his position as the greatest athlete in history and the fastest man in the world.
