    Tyson looked like he wanted it more. I'd be great to see that result more frequently. There is only 0.11 between their PB's!!!

    Wish everyone wasn't wearing the same kit in a lot of the races.

    Have Wiggle or somewhere recently been doing a discount on that purple number?

    9.97 and a 10.10 in the heats???? Bolt looks like he is not as over his injury as he is letting on. The Grimace in his face throughout that race is not usual of him. Granted the 2 faulty starts probably didnt help. Gay is looking really well great to see him finally putting injuries behind them hopefully he can keep improving and we can have similar to Berlin this time next year in Daegu

    He looked totally out of shape...his face even looked a bit puffed.
    9.97...he would do that on one leg when he is right.

    He will wipe the floor with him in a couple of months

    He has already come out and said that this year he is going to take it easy (by his standards) to get ready for championship next year. Given his set back in Ostrava in May will also contribute to this i can seem him one or two more races as per his diamond league contract (one of which wont be in the UK due to the crazy tax system in place for foreign athletes where Bolt could have to pay anywhere up to 200,000 to HMRC if he was to compete)

    Really surprised Bolt ran at all based on how bad he looked. No bragging rights to be had here Tyson.
