With his four biggest rivals not present owing to injury and doping suspensions, the Jamaican superstar appears to have a free ride to a seventh major title following 100m, 200m and 4x100m trebles at the 2008 Olympics and 2009 worlds.

Defending his world titles from Berlin in the upcoming days in Daegu, and his Beijing Olympic titles next year at the London Games is what he requires in his self-proclaimed aim for legend status. "The world championship is the first step to become a legend. I am very focussed to win. I am working on it  Few people have repeated. It is important to defend the titles. I have set a high standard for myself," Bolt said.

However, the four fastest men of 2011 are not at Daegu stadium, with season leader Asafa Powell (9.78 seconds) out injured along with Tyson Gay, while Steve Mullings and Michael Rodgers are suspended in the wake of positive doping tests.

Americans Walter Dix and Justin Gatlin, the latter being the 2005 world champion back from a four-year-doping ban, as well as Jamaica's Yonan Blake are medal contenders, but not expected to challenge Bolt even though he doesn't expect another world record.

"This is the comeback season. I am not in 9.5-second shape but I can run fast," Bolt said. "I am fine. It is a challenge getting back into shape. Technically I am not 100 per cent but I am almost there".

Most of the attention on the day will centre on Bolt, but there plenty more to watch.
