  Move over Michael Phelps, the Beijing Olympics has another superstar.Usain Bolt came into the Olympic history books last night, becoming the first man to break world records while winning both 100 m and 200m races at a single Games.

  The Jamaican broke the world record by winning the 200m in 19.30sec, becoming also the first man sweeping the 100 m and 200 m gold medals at an Olympics after American Carl Lewis did so in 1984.Bolt, who turns 22 today, got the top spot closely after his win in the men’s 100 m on Saturday.He bettered his own world record in that race by winning in 9.69sec, despite slowing down over the final 20 m.

  The performance marked him as one of the breakthrough stars of these Summer Games.One is sure that Bolt and Phelps, the US swimmer who won a record eight gold medals in the pool, will be in leading positions in the top athletes list.

  Yesterday Bolt showed what he could do when he run at full speed all the way, dashing for the finish line to break the old record of 19.32sec set by American Michael Johnson at the 1996 Atlanta Games.“He is Superman 2,” Johnson said after he saw his record fall.All too far behind the Jamaican, Churandy Martina of the Netherlands Antilles took silver in 19.82sec.Defending champion Shawn Crawford of the US got bronze at 19.96sec.

  Once he saw his new record, Bolt fell to the track, his giant legs and arms pointing out.“I am No.1, I am No.1!” the world’s fastest man declared to TV audiences as he beat his chest and blew kisses at the 91,000 crowd in the Bird’s Nest, before continuing with his victory lap.

  China’s 110 m hurdles(栏)world record holder Liu Xiang and Jamaica’s(牙买加)100 metres world record holder Asafa Powell made the most impressive marks on the opening day of the IAAF World Grand Prix finals.

  Powell ran yet another sub 10 second race though he didn’t threaten his record of 9.77 sec and Liu made a stunning return to the international circuit after taking time off since breaking the world mark in July in Lausanne.

  Liu timed 12.93 sec in the event and admitted to not feeling too surprised at his excellent run.

  “I felt really well before the race and I knew I was in really good shape,” said the 23-year-old Olympic champion.

  “After my world record(12.88 sec breaking Colin Jackson’s 13 year old mark of 12.91)I returned to Beijing and got a lot of rest,” added Liu.

  However Liu promised more of the same at the World Cup in Athens this weekend.

  “The World Cup has been my end of season objective and that is why I didn’t give it my all,” said Liu.

  Unlike Liu, Powell was undecided about the World Cup.

  “I feel a little tired, the season has been long but a rich one,” said Powell, who started way back in March at the Commonwealth Games where he won the 100 m title.

  “I will see whether I run in Athens next week.”

  Powell admitted that he had not threatened his world record because he was nervous of false starting(抢跑).

  “There had already been one so I didn’t want to be disqualified for doing the second one.I am not disappointed in my time at all.”

(1)
