Bolt to take on Mullings

World record holder Usain Bolt will take on his Jamaican compatriot and season best holder Steve Mullings in the 100 metres race topping up the Golden Spike meeting in Ostrava on today.

The 24-year-old Bolt, out of the business for nine months since he was beaten by American Tyson Gay in Stockholm last August, made an impressive comeback in Rome last Thursday, covering the distance in a winning 9.91 seconds.

The next step for the world record holder over 100m and 200m and Olympic and world champion in both is now to face the 28-year-old Mullings who clocked this season's lead time of 9.89sec in April.
