Usain Bolt Lost 100m semi-final to Christian Coleman


World fastest man Usain Bolt failed to cross the finish line today ahead of his contenders in the ongoing World Championship 2017.
Usain Bolt ran under 10 seconds for the second time in 2017, finishing behind American Christian Coleman to qualify for the World Championship 100m final.
The Jamaican started slowly to run 9.98 as Coleman won the semi-final in 9.97.
Great Britain's Reece Prescod came from last place in his semi to clock 10.05 and qualify behind Yohan Blake (10.04).
American Justin Gatlin - twice banned for doping - was again booed by the crowd but qualified behind Akani Simbine for Saturday's 21:45 BST final.
South Africa's Simbine produced 10.05 to improve on Friday's heats when he needed a fastest-loser place to progress, while Gatlin managed 10.09.
Bolt, meanwhile, reeled in his rivals after a sluggish drive from blocks he said were troublesome to his start on Friday.
He ended close to Coleman - the fastest man in the world this year - as both men eased down near the line.
BBC Sport's Darren Campbell said: "Bolt, again, was so slow to react at the gun and was behind Coleman but then he went into another gear.
"Bolt started to have his little look across as if to say 'young man I'm here and I'll see you in the final'."
