He got caught, going on all the time in all sports

He served his time move on

35 and still on top of his game, and running under 10 secs. Hats off to him

What Bolt has done for athletics and what he has achieved will never be surpassed. A true living legend

How anyone can think it's ok to cheat is showing a lack of moral fibre.Not once was Gatlin caught,but TWICE. He should have had a lifetime ban after the 2nd time.
I'm glad the real athletics fans have more concern for the sport.

My view that all of them dope to some extent...some are smart enough to allow enough time for things to work through their system and others not so smart...hence get caught...and the authorities have even more incentive to not have the face of the sport caught...happened in Athletics with Carl Lewis, happened in Cycling (for a long time) with Lance Armstrong, etc

The two Botswana 400m runners look very very good and will give van Niekerk a run. Gardiner from the Bahamas another contender. It's going to be an epic final

Ivorian, Marie-Josee Ta Lou should have won the Gold in the women's 100m. If only she dipped at the line!!!!

What a victory for Africa that would have been. Africa has some exciting prospects at the moment.
