Usain Bolt will compete at the IAAF World Championships in London

By Chris Dinsdale

August 4, 2017 - August 13, 2017 - Usain Bolt competes at the IAAF World Championships in Athletics at the Olympic Stadium in London, UK, aiming to crown his astonishing career with more gold medals in his final major competition.

Bolt has amassed 11 World Championship golds since 2009, while in Rio last summer he completed the triple-triple - the third Olympics in a row he had won gold in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay.

Even having to hand one back earlier this year – a relay gold from Beijing 2008 after Jamaican team-mate Nesta Carter tested positive for doping - did not detract from his achievements.
