Usain St. Leo Bolt, OJ, CD, is a Jamaican sprinter. Regarded as the fastest person ever timed, he is the first man to hold both the 100 metres and 200 metres world records since fully automatic time measurements became mandatory in 1977. Along with his teammates, he also set the world record in the 4×100 metres relay. He is the reigning Olympic champion in these three events, and the first man at the modern Olympic Games to win six gold...

If Queen Elizabeth knighthooded me and I would get the title Sir Usain Bolt. That sounds very nice.
All I have to do is to work on transition and technique.
Yeah, I am lazy. There's no doubt about that.
I can't really live outside Jamaica. I can be away, but only for a while.
I was playing cricket first and my cricket coach was the one that introduced me to track and field.
As long as I'm in great shape, nobody beats me, for sure.
I have dedicated my life to the 200m, I really love the 200m a lot.
Every season, for me, it's like starting from scratch again.
Messi or Cristiano - Speed? Cristiano. Shot? Cristiano. Dribbling? Messi. Intelligence? Messi. Talent? Messi. Winner is Messi!
There are things that bother me. I try not to let them, but they do.
My relationship with everyone in Jamaica is good.
It was not perfect but I'm very happy. It could have been better, but I'm now looking forward to my second race of the season.
Sleep is extremely important to me - I need to rest and recover in order for the training I do to be absorbed by my body
The important thing was that I got the win. It's good for confidence and the season.
