Bolt wins another Gold as jamaicans make clean sweep of 200m olympic medals

Bolt matched Michael Johnson's then world-record time from the Atlanta Games of 19.32 seconds as he held off training partner Yohan Blake in silver and Warren Weir in bronze. Blake had beaten Bolt at the Jamaican trials, his last race over the distance before London, but the double 100m champion ran a brilliant bend from lane seven to lead by a metre coming into the straight. Glancing to his left he was aware of Blake closing in a fraction at 150m, but held his form to cross the line with a finger to his lips. "This is what I wanted and I got it. I'm very proud of myself," the 25-year-old told BBC Sport. "After a rough season I came out here and did it. I thought the world record was possible. I guess I was fast but not fit enough. "I could feel my back strain a little bit, so all I did was to keep my form. I'm very dedicated to my work and London meant so much to me."
