Usain Bolt was sensationally disqualifed for a false begin in the Globe Championships 100m closing in Daegu leaving his fellow Jamaican Yohan Blake take the gold medal in 9.93sec. The American Walter Dix won silver in 10.08, with the 35-year-previous Kim Collins, from St Kitts and Nevis, taking bronze in ten.09.
But the abiding picture was of Bolt ripping his shirt off in disappointment soon after staying disqualified — the victim of the new untrue-commence rule, introduced in 2010, that immediately expels the 1st person to bogus begin. Earlier athletes had been authorized a single false begin for the discipline before the following 1 was disqualified.
Bolt could only enjoy from the sidelines as his 21-calendar year-outdated coaching spouse Blake won a comfy victory into a headwind of one.4m. "I cannot discover words to clarify it," explained Blake. "I have been praying for this moment. Collins made a great start but I realized I could catch him."
Blake had been the quickest qualifier from the semi-finals, clocking nine.95 in the race in which Dwain Chambers was disqualified for a false start. But Bolt had looked in ominously excellent form in his semi-final, operating ten.05 regardless of easing down for the final 40m.
However he ended up getting to be a victim of rule 162.seven, which states that "An athlete, right after assuming a entire and last set placement, shall not start his commence until soon after obtaining the report of the gun. If, in the judgment of the starter or recallers, he does so any earlier, it shall be deemed a bogus commence. Apart from in merged events, any athlete responsible for a untrue start shall be disqualified."
Previous yr another of Bolt's rivals, Tyson Gay — absent from present day race following getting hurt just before the US trials — had criticised the fake-start off policies, declaring: "If it happened [to Usain Bolt] at the Olympics or World Championships – without Usain Bolt the race is going to have an asterisk to the aspect. It just does not make perception. If it is not altered, it will harm our sport."
Some will argue that today's activities only served to show him correct.
