Usain Bolt ran to another world record Sunday, winning the 100-meter race in 9.58 seconds at the world championships. Bolt shaved .11 seconds off the record he set at the Beijing Olympics, beating defending champion Tyson Gay, who set a U.S. record of 9.71 seconds. In the fastest 100 ever, Asafa Powell took Jamaica's second medal, a bronze with a time of 9.84. The race had been the most anticipated event of the world championships and lived fully up to its billing.

    He's unreal and he hasn't been running the 100 very long. He was sort of an after thought going into the Olympics. He said he thought he could go 9.4.

    9.58 Wow, I'd like to see what he could run if he had any real competition (other than himself). Jamaica is killin' it in the sprints!

      That's because they all smoke those Jamaican logs soaked in rum. Yah, mahn!!!

    i wouldnt doubt he could pull off a 9.4. watched the race again and they said there was a headwind. imagine if there wasn't. and i agree with shanelle. if there was actually someone there to push him causing him to actually dig down an run.....madness
