Usain Bolt began his season with a 400m win in Kingston on Saturday.
Starting his season over-distance as usual, the Olympic 100m and 200m champion had to work hard in the home straight to overcome Allodin Fothergill at the Camperdown Classic, clocking just 46.74. His best is 45.28.
In other 400m races, Warren Weir posted 46.23 seconds, the fastest time of the night, with Yohan Blake following him home in 46.64.
