KINGSTON, Jamaica -- Usain Bolt is revving up for the world championships in August, but he says he has a lot or work on before the Moscow meet. http:///...x-flux-pas-cher.html . The worlds fastest man clocked a 9.94 seconds in the 100 metres to win the finals of the Jamaica national championships on Friday night. But he sounded less than thrilled with his performance. "Its all about getting through and getting it done and thats what I did," Bolt told reporters after the race in the islands national stadium, which was half empty on a calm Friday night in Kingston. He said his start and his "execution wasnt the best" but he was "feeling all right, not too tired." He said he was fairly pleased with his acceleration - or his "turbo," as he calls it - but its not yet where he wants it to be. "Ive got a lot more work to do," the 100 and 200 world record-holder said after the race, adding, "As long as the coach is not worried, Im not worried." Behind Bolt was Kemar Bailey-Cole at 9.98 and Nickel Ashmeade at 9.99. Former world record holder Asafa Powell did not finish in the top three to qualify for the worlds, shocking some of the decorated sprint stars many fans in Jamaica. At Fridays 100 metre finals, Bolts night was certainly made easier by the absence of teammate Yohan Blake. The Olympic silver medallist withdrew from the meet because of a hamstring injury that his agent says hasnt completely healed. But since Blake won the 100 metres at the 2011 worlds he has automatic qualification for the race at the August competition in Moscow. Bolt has dominated global sprinting for years. The powerful Jamaican has set world records (his mark stands at 9.58) and captured two straight Olympic 100-meter finals. But earlier this month at the Golden Gala meet in Rome, Bolt lost by a hundredth of a second to American Justin Gatlin in the 100. It was Bolts first significant loss since his false-start disqualification at the 2011 world championships in South Korean. At the U.S. championships in Iowa on Friday night, American sprinter Tyson Gay overcame a slow start to win the 100 metres, surging past Gatlin halfway through the race. Gay finished in a time of 9.75 seconds, the fastest in the world this season. At Jamaicas meet on Friday, Kerron Stewart won the womens 100 metres. She ran 10.94 seconds, beating Sherone Simpson and Schillonie Calvert. Two-time Olympic champion Shelley-Anne Fraser-Pryce qualified for the worlds after dominating the Diamond League. Decorated female sprinter Veronica Campbell-Brown is also missing Jamaicas national championships due to a positive drug test being investigated by an island anti-doping panel. Three-time Olympic gold medallist Campbell-Brown, or "VCB," as she known in sprinting circles, tested positive for a banned substance at a meet in May and will serve a suspension while anti-doping officials rules on the positive drug test. Earlier this week, Campbell-Browns manager, Claude Bryan, said the accusation came as a "shock to her" and the reigning 200-meter world champ is determined to clear her name. Just before Fridays meet got under way, Warren Blake, president of the Jamaica Athletics Administrative Association, urged people not to rush to judgment, saying everyone should wait for the official ruling from the disciplinary panel. A day after Jamaican officials announced Campbell-Browns provisional suspension, a spokesman for the International Association of Athletics Federations told AP that "all evidence seems to point to this offence being a lesser one." http:///...nferen-pas-cher.html .

Team physician Dr. Steve Traina performed the surgery Friday. Robinson was injured in a spill underneath the Nuggets basket during the first quarter of Wednesday nights loss to the Charlotte Bobcats.The Royals have been playing more than their share of close games with 60 of their first 108 games decided by one or two runs. That was not the case Monday night. Jeremy Guthrie pitched a four-hitter and Eric Hosmer drove in a career-high five runs to help the Royals rout the Minnesota Twins 13-0 on Monday night. The Royals, who have won 12 of their past 13 games, scored a season-high 13 runs. "Quite frankly tonight was probably the least stressful game that weve played all year long," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "It was literally a stress-free game. It was a combination of good pitching, solid defence and great hitting. Jeremy made it look easy. Six runs in the second was huge. Thats a big cushion right there." Guthrie (12-7) won his fourth straight start to log his 12th victory, which is a career high. It was his second career shutout and he lowered his earned run average to 3.94. The right-hander retired the final 13 batters, did not allow a Twins runner to reach third base and only two touched second base. He struck out seven and walked one. "Unfortunately Ive had big leads and have not pitched as well," Guthrie said. "So I probably stayed focused. Runs can really pile up in a hurry, so even with a 6-to-nothing lead, I felt though I was pitching with a two- or three-run lead, trying to avoid a leadoff hit and a drive because this team the guys can drive it. Theyve got some hitters throughout that can do damage if you lose focus." The Royals sent 11 men to the plate in a six-run second inning, which was highlighted by Mike Moustakas and Hosmer stroking two-run singles. Moustakas collected two hits in the inning. "They both feel very, very confident when the walk to the plate now," Yost said. "Its evident when you see them up there. Theyre stepping into the box with a lot of confidence. They feel good about themselves. Both of those kids have worked very hard to get back to where theyre at right now. "Moose iis up to . http:///...zx-700-pas-cher.html. 234 from .175 two months ago. Thats a big climb back. Im happy to see it for him." The inning, also, included Lorenzo Cain walking with the bases loaded and a Billy Butler run-producing single. Hosmer hit his 12th home run, 11 of them after June 13, in the sixth with Jarrod Dyson and Cain aboard. Moustakas, who had two hits in the second inning, went 4-for-5, matching his career high for hits. "I dont think we need to spend a lot of time talking about this one," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. Kevin Correia (7-8) was pulled after two innings and 16 batters faced, allowing six runs on seven hits and three walks. Correia has been rocked lately, not lasting more than two innings in two of his past three starts. He has given up 14 runs and 24 hits in just 9 2-3 innings. It got so bad that infielder Jamey Carroll pitched the eighth for the Twins, his first career big league outing on the mound. He retired the Royals in order. "I got out pitched by a 38-year-old (actually 39) middle infielder," Correia said. "Thats never good. I was just not able to get anybody out. I dont think Ive every started a game where a position player pitched. I just didnt have good command of my stuff tonight. I didnt really have it, my location. They were swinging early and jumped on some first-pitch strikes. You can always figure it out but it just didnt happen tonight."
