BOLT ENDS OLYMPIC CAREER WITH 9TH GOLD MEDAL|連拿9金 柏特奧運生涯畫下完美句點

In the men's 4 x 100 m relay at the Rio Olympics, the audience went wild when Usain Bolt sprinted through the finishing line to win another gold for Jamaica. It was also his 9th Olympic gold. Since Bolt has said that he plans to retire next year, this gold medal is a perfect ending to his Olympic career. Team Jamaica was in lane 4, and all eyes were on Usain Bolt because he has announced that this would be his last Olympics. Jamaica did not have a significant lead with the first three runners. However, the moment Bolt received the baton, things started to change immediately. Usain Bolt widened his lead right away, sending the audience into a frenzy. Bolt finished in a time of 37.27 seconds and claimed the 9th gold medal in his Olympic career. This means Usain Bolt has completed the triple-triple and is now equal with the legendary Finnish runner Paavo Nurmi, but unlike Nurmi, Bolt did it in three straight Olympics. Bolt said he plans to retire next year because he does not need to prove himself anymore. Another highlight of the 4x100m relay was Japan, who won a surprise silver medal and set a new Asian record of 37.60 seconds.
