ZURICH, Switzerland – Sprint legend Usain Bolt is among six Jamaicans confirmed for the Diamond League meeting in Zurich on Thursday.

Bolt will compete in the men’s 100-metres, his first race since the Moscow World Championships.

Bolt will race against three other Jamaicans in the short sprint-Nesta Carter, the 100-metre bronze medallist at the Moscow World Championships, Nickel Ashmeade and Kemar Bailey Cole.

The race also includes American Justin Gatlin, who won silver medal behind Bolt in the 100-metre at the Moscow World Championships.

Jamaican sprint queen Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce is also down to compete in Zurich, her first outing after creating history in Moscow.

Fraser-Pryce will again come face-to-face with the big Ivory Coast sprinter Murielle Ahoure.
