LONDON — Usain Bolt will return to London’s Olympic Stadium to run the 100 meters at a Diamond League meet later this month.
The announcement Friday came after a left leg injury led to the Jamaican sprinter withdrawing from races in Paris last month and Lausanne Thursday.
Bolt will race in London on July 24, three years after winning three Olympic gold medals in the Olympic Stadium in the 100, 200 and 4x100-meter relay races.
The announcement about Bolt’s participation came two days after British treasury chief George Osborne decided that foreign athletes would not be taxed on the earnings while in London for the two-day Anniversary Games meet. — AP
