Justin Gatlin (R) celebrates with Usain Bolt after the race. As so often before, Bolt made a terrible start but this time he could not make it up as Christian Coleman, the 21-year-old American who beat him in the semi-finals, looked set for victory. Coleman, who has run over 40 races this year but turned professional only a few weeks ago, took silver in 9.94. "It's just one of those things," Bolt said. Bolt is not quite finished yet and will go in the 4x100m relay next week - as will Gatlin.
