Jamaica's 100 metres Olympic champion Usain Bolt stayed on course in his bid to become the first athlete since Carl Lewis in 1984 to do the sprint double as he won his 200m semi-final in confident fashion.
BEIJING: The world knows that he is lightning quick on the track. There are two world records as proof.
Usain Bolt, the sprint champion in the Olympic Games, wants to be known as 'Lightning Bolt', the media nickname that has been given to him even before he reached Beijing.
Thrilled to break the world record on the eve of his 22nd birthday, Bolt was reacting to the former 200m world record holder Michael Johnson calling him as the Superman.
"I am Lightning Bolt! I am not Flash Gordon or anybody. My name is Bolt, Lightning Bolt", said Bolt, as he addressed the media after the historic 200m race that he won at 19.30, a new world record.
Michael Johnson had agreed that Bolt would take his record one day, but did not expect that to be in Beijing.
