Isn't he fantastic? Jamaica have another gold medal, as the men's sprint final was won by Jamaica in a world record time of 36.84, anchored by Usain Bolt, as the United States came second in 37.04, while Trinidad took the bronze medal with a time of 38.12.
And there was another bronze medal for Jamaica in the women's mile relay as well....
I was privileged at the stadium to stand up and hear the Jamaican, Trinidadian and Bahamian national anthems. You're right, Arnik, it was a great Olympic Games for Caribbean athletes.
