ATHLETICS : USAIN BOLT'S SHOCK LAST RACE - - BOWS OUT WITH BRONZE !

Usain Bolt is human, after all.

His majestic farewell parade - - his last 100 Meter race at the World Championships in London, supposed to be his dearest best - - was stolen by his arch rival Justin Gatlin of USA.

Worse, Usain Bolt came in third, settling for rather very unusual bronze, for his curtain call.

Justin Gatlin wins 100m gold at #London2017.
