Bolt gets semi after night with Swedish girls

ATHLETICS

-

USAIN BOLT warmed up for his triple gold tilt – by lining up a hat-trick of stunning Swedes.

The world’s fastest man showed he’s a swift mover off the track as well as on it by living most blokes’ secret fantasy – having half the Swedish handball team back to his room.

Bolt strolled into the 200m semi-finals yesterday in his bid to make it three Olympic sprint golds.

And, after saying he can be the first man to dip below 19 seconds in Thursday’s final, the Jamaican megastar was straight out of the blocks away from the Olympic Stadium as he was paid a visit by his three hot Scandinavi­an fans – who were no doubt impressed by his big, shiny gong.

The sprint legend tweeted a picture of himself and the tasty trio – Abriella Kain, Isabelle Gullden and Jamina Roberts – saying: “In Kingston, we say hmmm mmm.”

Despite losing all five matches and finishing bottom of their group, the Swedish lovelies were given “special accreditat­ion” to join Bolt’s party after he easily retained his Olympic 100m crown on Sunday.

Jamina insisted the foursome got up to nothing naughty, revealing the group passed the time talking, posing for photos and looking at Facebook.

She said: “We met his coach and asked if we could follow on and meet Bolt. It was awesome, he wasn’t cocky. He wasn’t drunk either – he’d just got back from the race.”

Bolt hopes to add the 200m to his 100m crown and, with Jamaica red-hot favourites in the 4x100m, his huge medal haul is set to grow. He added: “I’m not going to say I’ll beat 19 seconds in the 200 because people will keep me to that, but it’s on my mind. “This first gold means I’m one step closer to being a

legend.”
