Olympic Monitor: No Medal For Bovell

George Bovel at the London 2012 Olympic

No Medal for George Bovell in 50 Metre Finals at the London 2012 Olympics.  In a very exciting final, Bovell seemed slow to get off and was grossly out performed by his challengers. He could only muster 7th place in a time of 21.82, a performance slower than his qualifying Heat. Florent Manaudou of France was first in a time of 21.34 out performing World Record holder Cesar Cielo who had to settle for bronze. Cullen Jones of the USA was 2nd in a time of 21.54. All Focus would move to other Trinidad and Tobago hopefuls Michelle-Lee Ahye, Semoy Hackette and Kelly-ann Baptiste that would be on show in the semi final action tomorrow.
