Bolt may rest after Zurich event
Usain Bolt said he could call an early halt to his season after Friday's Golden League meeting in Zurich.
Bolt, who smashed his existing records in the 100m and 200m at the recent World Championships in Berlin, admitted to feeling tired from his exploits.
"I can't say I'm not tired. Hopefully I can tell after the race whether I can go for three more races," said Bolt.
Lisa Dobriskey, who claimed 1500m silver in Berlin, heads a small squad of British athletes in Zurich.
Dobriskey, who was elevated to second place after original winner Natalia Rodriguez was disqualified for pushing, will again meet most of the contestants from the Berlin final.
Bahrain's gold medallist Maryam Yusuf Jamal and Shannon Rowbury of the United States, who was third, also make an early return to action, while Dobriskey's fellow Briton Jemma Simpson, a semi-finalist in the 800m in Berlin, steps up in distance.
