Finally Usain Bolt won on his 3rd attempt in Stockholm yesterday


Finally sprint superstar Usain Bolt (JAM), world record holder in 100m (9.58) n 200m (19.19) put his jinx to rest when he pushed to a comfortable 20.03 win in 200m at the DN Galan meet, the 11th leg of the Samsung Diamond League in Stockholm yesterday, his first win in Stockholm.
He lost in the same place to compatriot Asafa Powell (currently World Leading 9.78) in 2008 and was upset by Tyson Gay (USA) last August, both in the 100m.

Alonso Edward of Panama and Ainsley Waugh also of Jamaica were behind in 20.47 n 20.56 respectively.

That was Bolt's last race before the World Championship in Daegu next month
