Usain Bolt Wins men's 100m in record time 9.63 seconds


Usain Bolt has won the gold medal in the men's 100m at the London Olympic Games after winning the final in 9.63 seconds, a new Olympic record.
Bolt's Jamaican training partner and biggest rival, Yohan Blake, claimed the silver medal in 9.75 secs and former Olympic champion Justin Gatlin won the bronze in a time of 9.79.
Bolt's victory was the second-fastest 100m run in history, behind his world record time of 9.58, set in at the World Championships in Berlin in 2009.
