Jamaican athlete Usain Bolt ran the fastest time of the year in 19.55 seconds to win the world 200 meters title for a record fourth time and sweep the individual sprints at a major global championships for a fifth time on Thursday.



Five days after beating Justin Gatlin to win the 100 meters, the 29-year-old Olympic champion and world record holder again proved too strong for in-form American, who finished second in 19.74 seconds.



Anasco Jobodwana took bronze in 19.87 for South Africa.



The victory gave Bolt a record-extending 10th world championship gold medal and he could yet win an 11th as part of Jamaica's 4x100 meter relay team on Saturday.
