Usain Bolt Pulls Out of Shanghai Grand Prix

World Champion Usain Bolt of Jamaica has pulled out of a meet in China this month, citing fatigue and the risk of injury. Usain Bolt (world champion in the 100 and 200 meters) had been due to compete in the Shanghai Golden Grand Prix on Sept. 20.

"The season has been long and has been challenging with early challenges I faced," Bolt said Friday in a statement apologizing to Chinese fans.

Bolt had earlier pulled out of a Sept. 25 meet in South Korea.
