Als er am Samstag mit seinen jamaikanischen Teamkollegen in der 100-Meter-Staffel zum Sieg lief, holte er seine elfte WM-Goldmedaille. Nur zwei Tage zuvor hatte er im 200-Meter-Finale seinen gr\u00f6\u00dften Rivalen Justin Gatlin hinter sich gelassen. In der schnellsten Zeit des Jahres, 19,55 Sekunden, holte Bolt seinen vierten Weltmeistertitel \u00fcber 200 Meter in Folge. Nur f\u00fcnf Tage zuvor hatte er Gatlin \u00fcber die 100-Meter-Distanz in 9,79 Sekunden besiegt.<\/span><\/div>\n   <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<!-- row text single -->\n<div class=\"gradientnone\">\n<div class=\"row rowSingleColumnWide spacing\">\n    <div class=\"col articleText\">\n        <div class=\"textStyle_2b\" >\u201cGut gemacht, Usain\u201d, sagte er den Reportern nach dem 200-Meter-Lauf. \u201cIch bin einfach nur gl\u00fccklich, ich habe euch gesagt, dass ich es schaffen w\u00fcrde.
