Justin Gatlin of the United States bends down to Jamaica's Usain Bolt after upstaging the greatest sprinter of all time in his last competitive 100m appearance during the final of the marquee event at the 2017 IAAF World Championships in London last night. The 35-year-old American, who served a five-year doping ban and won silvers behind Bolt at the last two world championships, clocked 9.92 seconds, with teammate Christian Coleman winning silver in 9.94sec. Bolt suffered a dreadful start and could only claim bronze in 9.95sec.
