Bolt to compete in Golden League meeting in Paris

Bolt to compete in Golden League meeting in Paris Paris - Triple Olympic champion and men's 100-metre and 200m world record holder Usain Bolt will compete in the Golden League meeting at the Stade de France in Paris on July 17, organizers confirmed Thursday.

It remains unclear whether the 22-year-old Jamaican will compete in the 100m or 200m. Bolt will make his European season debut in Manchester on May 17 in a 150m race in the city centre.

The sprinter, who won gold in the 100m and 200m at the Beijing Olympic Games in world record times and also triumphed in the 4x100m relay, will use both events partly as a tune-up for the World Championships in Berlin in August. (dpa)
