RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) _ After a day off, Usain Bolt returns to the track today in
his quest for more gold _ in his favorite event, too: the 200 meters.
Also Tuesday, American Christian Taylor will defend his triple jump title. The
competition begins at 9:50 a.m.
Jamaican Omar McLeod from the University of Arkansas and American Devon Allen,
the University of Oregon football/track standout, square off in the 110-meter
hurdles. McLeod ran a qualifying heat yesterday in the rain of 13.27 seconds,
winning the heat easily.
Medals also will be awarded in women’s discus, the women’s 1500 meters and the
men’s high jump.
