Usain Bolt bolting across the finish line during Sunday’s 100-meter semifinal with a smile on his face has spawned a hilarious meme.

AFTER WINNING a third straight Olympic 100m gold medal at the Olympic Stadium in Rio de Janeiro last night, sprint king Usain says he isn’t done ticking the boxes on his Rio 2016 checklist just yet.
Bolt ran the 100 in a time of 9.81 seconds.
The normal schedule Bolt is referring to is two hours, the time usually afforded to athletes to recover between 100m dashes.
Bolt’s rivals on the track have been unable to beat him on the world’s biggest stage for the past three Games but Pogba – the world’s most expensive footballer – believes he can do it.
Bolt unlaced his now-famous gold spikes and took selfies with the fans.
Now that he is the only man to get three consecutive 100 meter wins in the Olympics, will he get a new gold 2017 Nissan GT-R for his accomplishment? He turned his yellow hat backward, kneeled down and gave the crowd what it really wanted – that famous, arching, “To the World” pose that he debuted eight years ago in Beijing.
Chants of “Bolt, Bolt, Bolt” rang out from the near-capacity stadium.
The rehab started immediately, with trips to Germany to see his doctor, then a warm-up 200 in London to prove to his Olympic committee that he was fit for the Olympics.
But this was not Bolt at his fastest.

As the race began, there was silence, but as Bolt pulled ahead of Justin Gatlin, the restaurant erupted in a roar, followed by wild cheering as Bolt won.
