The world’s fastest man, Usain Bolt of Jamaica, will run in Switzerland five days after the Olympics.
Organisers said Bolt has committed to run the sprint event at the Weltklasse meeting in Zurich on Friday, August 29.
The 21 year old set a 100-metre world record time of 9.72 seconds in New York last month.
On Saturday, Bolt qualified for the Beijing Games at the Jamaica Olympic trials, running 9.85 to beat former world record holder Asafa Powell into second place.
