While training over the
weekend Bolt felt the tightness in training
over the weekend and after consulting with Coach Glen Mills decided not to risk
anything at this early stage of the season, agent Ricky Simms told Reuters.
Simms also stated...
"It's a small strain and
he's hoping to be OK for next week but you know it's day by day ... maybe for
the two or three days. It just a problem of sprinting,"
Simms
also stated that the injury was not serious and that Bolt should be ready to compete
in 100 meter run on May 8 at the Cayman Islands Meet.
"I
am disappointed to miss the Kingston meet as I love running in front
of my home crowd in Jamaica," Bolt said in a statement. "I'm told it
is only a grade one strain so hopefully I will be OK soon."
