The legend spoke afterward

It is sad when some people raise questions about the legend’s commitment to the track. He revealed his medical report to the media addressing the speculations about whether the injury was for real or not. He said“I don’t usually release my medical report to the public but sadly I have sat and listened to people questioning if I was really injured.”

The legend further added, “I have never been one to cheat my fans in anyway & my entire desire at the championship was run one last time for my fans. Thanks for the continued support my fans and I rest, heal and move onto the next chapter of my life”

There’s no way Usain Bolt deserved this end to an amazing career. However, all we can do is to be grateful for the moments he has given us and remember him forever as the greatest athlete of all time.
