Usain Bolt and Donovan Bailey are both iconic sprinters, but they represent different eras and achievements in Track and Field. Bolt, from Jamaica, is known for his world records in the 100 meters (9.58 seconds) and 200 meters (19.19 seconds), setting a new standard for speed in the 21st century. In contrast, Bailey, a Canadian sprinter, made history in the 1990s by winning gold in the 100 meters at the 1996 Olympics and holding the 100-meter world record (9.84 seconds) before Bolt broke it. While both are celebrated for their contributions to sprinting, Bolt's dominance and record-breaking performances have defined him as one of the greatest sprinters of all time.
