Impressive time for Angelo Taylor, and impressive to come back and win after winning this event in 2000.

I don't know, like Atlanta, that track is juiced. If Bolt keeps the pedal down through the finish he will get real close. Without a doubt sub 19.50.

Sub 19.50 would be incredibly impressive and is within the realm of possibility. I don't know if 19.32 is possible for him.

his 20.5 was the fast of the first round. shawn crawford looked good but bolt should crush him.

he went 20.5 in the first round of the 200 and basically jogged the last 50m. IF he run through the tape in the finals, he'll smash the recored.

You think he can shave 1.2 seconds off the last 50m? I'll time the splits when I get home but unless he went over 6 seconds for the last 50m that just isn't possible.

he ran a 20.5 with NO effort. this clown has no idea how fast he is.

He's so smooth he's still flying even when he's geared down, despite running sideways at the end of the 100 he wasn't losing any ground. So how relaxed he looks makes it appear that he can do a lot more (like a horse in a hand ride). I think he can go 19.50 but I think 19.32 is out of reach.

He knows, but if he runs full gas all the way, then too many red flags will go up.
