NEW YORK (AP) — Like a bolt out of nowhere, Usain Bolt is now the world's fastest man.

The Jamaican runner, who doesn't even consider the 100 meters his best race, set the world record Saturday night with a time of 9.72 seconds, .02 seconds faster than the old record held by his countryman, Asafa Powell.

Good news for Jamaica, we officially have two of  the fastest men in the world, and are ready to tear up the tracks in China. I am searching like hell to find the race to see the look on Gay's face.

Congrats Usain
