Bolt to run at Paris Diamond League meeting

Six-time Olympic gold medallist Usain Bolt has confirmed that he will run the 100m at the 2015 IAAF Diamond League meeting in Paris.

The event, which takes place at the Stade de France on July 4, will be the Jamaican sprinter's first European race of the season.

In 2009 Bolt set the 100m meeting record of 9.79s, before winning in the same event a year later, but he was forced to miss out last season with a foot injury.

The 28-year-old is due to run at the Camperdown Classic at Jamaica's National Stadium tomorrow.
