A day after falling down, injuring his hamstring and having to be carted off the track during the 200-meter Olympic trials, American sprinter Tyson Gay insisted he'll be just fine in time to run the 100 meters and the 4 x 100-meter relay in Beijing.
"I'll be 100 percent for the 100 and 400 relay," Gay said.
That's good news for Gay, for the fans, for Team USA, for track and field and for the Olympic Games. The 100-meter final between Gay and Jamaica's Usain Bolt should be one of the most exciting competitions of the Olympiad, and it would be a real shame if an injury derailed that competition. Fortunately, It sounds like Gay's hamstring strain won't slow him down.
