This was Bolt’s show, more like the old Bolt and the young Bolt. When Bolt and De Grasse ran together in the semi-final heat of the 200, De Grasse pushed Bolt harder than Bolt wanted to run. Bolt had a burst to begin the 200 he didn’t seem to have for the 100 a few nights ago. The silver by De Grasse was the first Canadian silver since 1992. Andre De Grasse, the contender with two medals, did everything possible to win — except no one was beating Bolt on this night.
