Blake takes 100m

Tony Don

Congratulations to Yohan and Jamaica. Usain will take the 200m.

Pam Gayle

Crown still remain in Jamaica. Congrats to Yohan. Bolt will reign in 200m.

Paula Deidre Rosemary Estwick

Congrats Yohan, but the false-start rule is horrible still! Really don't know what the IAAF was thinking!

Leonie Wallace

And hopefully we will take the 4x100.

Tru-Blessed Anderson

Totally agree with Paula!

Keith Coley

Why yuhh agree, a rule is a rule! One false start and yuh out! He is not the 1st of the meet. (Old rule two strike and yuh out). He is a good star, but he mus' be humble.

I have always said that the one false start and you are out rule is unfair to the speed-event competitors. The powers that be need to revisit the ruling. It does not matter much to Usain, but to lesser people who only get one chance at a major event, it is extremely unfair.

This just shows ... when it's ur day, it's ur day and not a soul can stop it ... today was Blake's day and that's just how life is :)

Love how this happened ... pity Bolt got DQ, but it just goes to show that our fate isn't one-man based. Congrats Blake!

@geoffmarsh
