Jamaica?s 2008 Olympic sprint sensation Usai Bolt has been beaten for the second time in the last three days by his training partner Yohan Blake in the 200 meters.
The world record holder and Olympic sprint king was edged at the tape by Blake in Jamaica?s trials for the 2012 London Olympic Games.
Blake turned in a time of 19.80 seconds which was a mere 0.03 seconds ahead of Bolt.
Blake moved into the lead around the turn for home and then with a sudden surge raced ahead of Bolt to score a narrow victory.
The victory by Blake was all the more significant since it came two days after beat Bolt, the reigning world 100 meter champion by a blistering time of 9.75 as the two prepared for what may well be an exciting showdown in the blue ribbon event in London.
The London Olympics will be covered on Philippine Television by AKTV IBC 13.
