Mini Olympics - Russia


Here is my Mini Olympic presentation.

Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt has won the 100m final at Rio Olympics.

Bolt crossed the finish line in a season's best time of 9.81 seconds, with American Justin Gatlin just seven hundredths of a second slower to win sliver. Canada's Andre DeGrasses took bronze. The win takes Bolt a step closer to his goal of winning a historic triple-triple, which is the mix of winning gold in the 100m, 200m , and the 4x100m relay in three straight Olympics.

The men's 200m sprint heats get under way on Wednesday.

The kiwi collected our gold second medal of the Games with a dramatic photo finish victory. Drysdale went to the final as the defending Olympic champion and title favourite. However , Croatia's Damir Martin had other plans. The Croatian led the field by a boat length after 1000m but by the 1500m mark Drysdale was in front and he appeared to have the race under control. But a amazing burst by Croatian falsely beating Drysdale right on the line.
