New Delhi: Legendary Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt on Thursday once again stamped his autority over World Athletics as he comprehensively won the 200m final event at World Athletics Championships in Beijing on Thursday.

Bolt clocked a time of 19.55 seconds, which was way better than Justin Gatlin's (19.74 seconds, Silver medal) and South Africa's Anaso Jobodwana (19.87 seconds, Bronze medal)

Here is how the Bolt destroyed his opponents:

Bolt is the world record holder in this distance with that transcending run of 19.19sec. And his run today was the best time for the season.

On Sunday, he defended his 100m title with a 9.79sec run which was 0.01sec faster to Gatlin's effort.

With the win, the back-to-back Olympic champion increased his world titles to 10 over 100m, 200m and the 4x100m relay.

Bolt, who celebrated his 29th birthday with the Jamaican team in Beijing last Friday, has already established as arguably the greatest ever sprinter.
