St Vincent coach picks Bolt for 100 metres

St Vincent and the Grenadines team manager, Leroy Llewellyn has tipped Jamaican Usain Bolt to win the marquee men’s 100 metres at the Olympic Games.



Llewellyn said the event will be close with Jamaican Asafa Powell expected to produce a strong threat.



The men’s 100 metres will provide the fireworks at the August 8 to 24 Games, with Bolt, Powell and American Tyson Gay expected to go head-to-head in a titanic clash.



Powell and Gay were expected to shine but Bolt, who holds the world record after his 9.72 seconds in New York in May, turned the equation with his recent outstanding performances.
