2013 World Championships Statistics – Men's 200M by K Ken Nakamura
2013 World Championships Statistics – Men’s 200m by K Ken Nakamura The records to look for in Moskva: 1) Nobody won 100m/200m double at the Worlds more than once. Can Bolt do it for the second time? 2) Can Bolt win 200m for the third time to surpass Michael Johnson and Calvin Smith? 3) No country other than US ever won multiple medals in this event. Can Jamaica do it? 4) No European won medal at both 100m and 200m? Can Lemaitre change that?
