With a ‘triple triple’ Usain Bolt wraps Rio run
Usain Bolt brought the curtain down on his Olympic career with a record-equaling ninth gold medal, anchoring Jamaica to relay glory in a perfectly-scripted finale to complete his unprecedented ‘triple triple’.
The 29-year-old superstar, widely seen as the greatest sprinter in history, stormed over the line in 37.27 seconds to trigger an eruption of adulation in the Olympic Stadium.
The multitalented sprint king who brought his Olympic gold tally to nine on Saturday is currently regarded as the fastest human in history ever timed.
Japan’s quartet took a surprise silver in 37.60 seconds while the United States claimed bronze in 37.62.
At the end of the race bolt made a statistic of his Olympic gold medals. He also thanked all his fans for the love and support via twitter and instagram.
