With the tremendous success of the Jamaican athletics program, breeding such sprint stars as Usain Bolt, Yohan Blake, Warren Weir, Michael Frater, Nesta Carter, Asafa Powell and Shelly Ann Fraser-Pryce, to name a few, the government wants to host a Diamond League track and field meet on the island.

In light of Jamaica's contributions to the sport, it would be fitting, not to mention, fun. The Jamaican government has stated retrofitting would need to be undertaken on the national stadium, but it could be done. There would also be no shortage of local volunteers to help with the event.

Head of Hublot luxury watches presents 26-year-old Jamaican gold medalist sprinter Usain Bolt with a stunning new timepiece during a birthday party held for the sprint star at the chairman's mansion in Switzerland.

Bolt was recently presented with a free $125,000 bottle of champagne in London to celebrate his Olympic feats. 

Usain Bolt and his Jamaican compatriot, sidekick and training partner, Yohan Blake cruised to victory at the Diamond League track meet in Lausanne, Switzerland. Blake won the 100m, running the joint second fastest time in history (9.69 seconds).

Blake has tied with Bolt's record of the second fastest time. While Bolt continues to hold the record for the fastest time. Fellow Jamaican Nesta Carter, who won gold with Bolt, Blake and Michael Frater at the Olympics in the relay race, came third. What's amazing is Blake ran the race after feeling sick all week. Blake commented, "I've been sick all week, thank God I recovered."


22-year-old Yohan Blake rang the bell at the prestigious Lords cricket grounds and has expressed his love for the sport. Blake recently filmed a new spot for Adidas, which he endorses and held a packed signing for the brand in London, England this month.

Bolt won the 200m by a comfortable margin. The duo continue to capitalize on their success from the wonderful London 2012 Olympics that concluded recently. The Judiciary Report wishes them much continued success.
