Bolt to run in Shanghai, considering Korean race

Raleigh, North Carolina: Jamaican triple Olympic and world champion Usain Bolt will return to China next month for a 100 metres race in Shanghai, his agent said on Tuesday.The September 20 race will be Bolt`s first in Asia since his triumphant Beijing Olympics, Ricky Simms told Reuters in a telephone interview. The 23-year-old also is considering a sprint race on September 25 in Daegu, South Korea. The city will host the next world athletics championships in 2011. A book deal on Bolt`s dramatic rise to become the world`s top sprinter also is being finalised, Simms said. "We have been in negotiations for a long time and I think it is almost coming to a conclusion," the agent said. Still under discussion is the focus of the book. It could encompass Bolt`s entire life or just his success in recent years. "There may be a couple of books," Simms said. Bolt sprinted to triple gold in the Beijing Olympics with world record performances in the 100 and 200 metres and 4x100 metres relay. He nearly duplicated the showing at the recently completed world championships in Berlin. Bureau Report
