I watched the final heats of all three Bolt did a 9.92 Powell a 9.99 Tyson Gay 10.24 I think In 24 hours we shall have the finals. It's going to be awesome. Imagine thse guys cover 10 metres in less than a second. That's over 30 feet. My guess is it will be Bolt versus Powell.

Tyson Gay ran a 10.22. He trains down the road from my house, so I'm hoping he was holding something in reserve for the finals!

It should be mathematical, but it's not.

They all looked like they were jogging in their prelims. My guess is that Bolt will hold off Gay who will hold of Powell. I don't think Tyson Gay's hamstring problems are still going to evident based on how he looked in his 10.2 jig jog, but Bolt has just gotten some amazing speed since he moved down from the 200 (which I think he is also going to win.) I don't think that Asafa Powell is as good as he was 2 years ago.
