Usain Bolt thought he was primed to run a strong 200 meters at the Adidas Grand Prix on Saturday.
Instead, he ran his "worst turn ever" and barely won with a tedious time of 20.29 that left the Jamaican bewildered with his continuing poor form as he tries to find his former speed in time for the world championships in August.
A strong headwind of 2.8 meters per second was a factor in his slow time, more than a full second slower than his world record.
