Today, we find out who gets to hold the title of the world’s fastest man, as the men’s 100m final will be held in London. Will it be Usain Bolt, following up on his spectacular Beijing Olympics, or Yohan Blake, who handled him in the Jamaican Olympic trials? Or, perhaps, someone else, such as the American Tyson Gay or perhaps Bolt and Blake’s fellow Jamaican, Asafa Powell.
