Bolt bids for golden treble in 4x100 relay
Jamaica's world record-setting double Olympic sprint champion Usain Bolt will look to complete a golden treble Friday in the men's 4x100-meter relay at the Beijing Games.
BEIJING (AFP) -
Jamaica's world record-setting double Olympic sprint champion Usain Bolt will look to complete a golden treble Friday in the men's 4x100-meter relay at the Beijing Games.
Jamaica's path to gold in both the men's and women's relays was smoothed when the United States failed to qualify thanks to botched baton hand-offs in the heats of both.
Bolt, who celebrated his 22nd birthday on Thursday, didn't run in the relay preliminaries, but Dwight Thomas, Michael Frater, Nesta Carter and former 100m world record-holder Asafa Powell secured his chance at a third medal, while Jamaica's dominant women sprinters led the way into their final.

1. Happy Birthday Usain Bolt! (if you're a Malaysian, you can easily pocket RM2 million as your birthday present)

2. Why so many sprinters (even long distance runners too) come from Jamaica / African countries?
.
3. If Jamaica can produce 2008 Olympic sprint runner in Beijing i.e. Usain Bolt - will Malaysia send in our own Hussein Dol to compete in 100m 2012 Olympic in London? Boleh? Malaysia Boleh, what?
.

4. So, please double check & "usha" - itu Usain Bolt training kat mana? and his food intake? so that our Hussein Dol can copy - in 4 years - still got time.
