ATHLETICS: IAAF/BTC World Relays: Bolt, Fraser Heads Jamaican Team
Sprint superstars, Usain Bolt and Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, head Jamaica’s 44-strong squad that will go across the Caribbean to the IAAF/BTC World Relays, Bahamas 2015, which will be staged in Nassau in May 2-3.
Jamaica finished second to the USA in the Golden Baton standings at last year’s inaugural edition of the event, when their men’s 4x200m team set a memorable world record of 1:18.63 despite the injury-enforced absence of Bolt.
Bolt, who has been named to Jamaica’s 4x100m and 4x200m teams, will return to The Bahamas for the first time in a decade, having last run there at the 2005 Central America and Caribbean Games.
“It’s going to be serious business for me in The Bahamas,” said Bolt.
