Blake, who finished second to Bolt at the London Games in the 100, said he was confident that the world-record-holder will be in Rio. He's not out of the Rio Games, but his status hinges now on how he does at a meet in London in three weeks. Even with the injury, Bolt won both of his heats at this meet, first the quarterfinal on Thursday and then the semifinal on Friday. But even after Blake regrouped and prevailed, all the buzz was about Bolt and his status going forward especially since the national meet serves as the Jamaican Olympic trials. "I will seek treatment immediately and hope to show fitness at the London Anniversary Games on July 22 to earn selection for the Olympic Games in Rio."
