Yohan turns on the jets to salvage the silver

Yohan Blake turned in one of his best performances of the season to seriously challenge Tyson Gay in the 200M at the Diamond League Meet in Monaco. Blake, running out of the difficult lane 8, went out hard initially and seemed to have been fading around the bend before turning on the jets in the straight to peg back the competition and take silver. Gay ran 19.72s to secure the Gold with Blake a very close second in 19.78s.
