Really looking forward for this event... It looks loaded with talent and great athletes.
First of all we have the WR Holder U. Bolt in an event that he looks invisible for 8 years now. If he has no injury problems he's the hot favourite for a 3rd consecutive Olympic Gold.
Everybody is focusing on J. Gatlin to provide he's major threat but i believe that another US sprinter L. Merritt is the dark horse in the race. As you can easily see in the Performance List he has some fast times in an event that its not theoretically his best.
Other athletes like A. Edward, M. Francis and 3rd US athlete A. Webb also have the potential to clock sub 19.80 times.
My prediction for the Medals
1. U. Bolt
2. L. Merritt
3. J. Gatlin
in that order.
