A CHICAGO sports broadcaster and columnist has all but accused the world's fastest man Usain Bolt of using performance enhancing drugs.
"Anyone wasting words extolling the greatness of Usain Bolt should know better," wrote Dan Bernstein on CBSChicago.com.
"Even the simplest assessment of the circumstances surrounding the explosive success of Jamaican sprinting... sets off alarms."
Bernstein does not allege directly that Bolt is guilty of doping, but points to his training partner and London 100m and 200m silver medallist Yohan Blake, who tested positive for a performance-enhancing drug prior to the 2009 World Championships.
Bernstein also draws a link to a man called Angel Hernandez, a former chemist with the tainted American drug company BALCO, which was found to be manufacturing steroids.
"Bolt reportedly has been working with Angel Hernandez," Bernstein alleges.
