Bolt out to sign off his career with 2 more gold medals

Usain Bolt says he is over his early season setbacks and running into form at the right time to sign off his career with two more gold medals at next month's world athletics championships in London.

Bolt laboured to a 10.06 seconds 100 metres victory in the Czech Republic last month and immediately travelled to see his doctor for some treatment on the back issues that have troubled him for years.

The Jamaican world record holder will test his treated back in Saturday’s Diamond League meeting in Monaco, which will be his last outing before he defends his 100m title and then goes in the 4x100m relay in the world championships.

Bolt is unlikely to ever again match his best ‑ the 2009 world record of 9.58 ‑ and the 30‑year‑old said he would be happy with any sub‑10 second time as he seeks to find the speed he knows he will need on August 5.
