USAIN Bolt and Yohan Blake sauntered through their 200-meter semifinals on Saturday to set up another rematch and an explosive finish to the Jamaican Olympic trials in Kingston.
The men's 200 race today will provide the grand finale to the four-day meeting that could prove even more dramatic than their 100 showdown won by Blake, as the two fastest men ever over the distance go head-to-head for a last time before London.
Bolt, the Olympic champion and world record holder at 19.19 seconds, will no doubt want to close out a lackluster meeting on a positive note while Blake, with a best of 19.26, could confirm himself as the man to beat in both events at the Olympic Games.
