This is the first time he is going to be spectator since 2017 and he really is excited about it. 

"I'm definitely excited to be in the stands," he said. "I've never got an opportunity to really watch Olympic Games, to either go [watch] swimming, the soccer or just to see all the events. So I'm excited to actually get the chance to really experience Olympics like a true fan." Bolt said.

Bolt remains the fastest man in the world with a record of 9.85 seconds over 100-meter sprint and 19.19 seconds over 200 meters.
