Rio 2016 Athletics Sprints Preview 100m Men

Leave a Comment


I'm gonna start the Olympics preview with the Athletics Track & Field Events. First of all the Sprints.



First of all the King of Track and Field the 100m.

In my mind Usain Bolt stands out as the hot favor to Win an unrepresented 3rd consecutive Olympic Gold.

As you can see in the 2016 Performance List he's biggest threats come from the US in the sights of J. Gutlin & T. Bromell. The French J. Vicaut doesn’t possess the mental attitude to go out and win it. N. Ashmeade and Y. Blake are the 2 Jamaicans to follow Bolt in the sprint events but both don’t really look in a condition to go to Rio and provide an upset by winning gold. 

In my opinion the medals are going to the trio of 

U. Bolt
J. Gutlin
T. Bromell

and perhaps in that particular order also.

The rest of the field doesn't seem capable of bringing a strong contest for a medal position.

If Usain Bolt is healthy then it will come down to the above Trio. As a dark horse i like the sights of T. Bromell due to his solid technique and upcoming potential. But it will probably come down to a 2 men race between U. Bolt & J. Gatlin
