BEIJING -- Usain Bolt put his sprinting supremacy beyond doubt.

With one of his coasting-at-the-end performances in the 200 meters on Thursday, Bolt still easily outdueled Justin Gatlin as the Jamaican won a record 10th gold medal at the world championships.

Looking left and failing to see any red from Gatlin's jersey, Bolt lifted both arms and punched his thumbs into his chest to show once again he is the greatest sprinter of all time.
