Usain Bolt has provided the Commonwealth Games with a huge boost after the Jamaican sprint sensation confirmed his availability for next month's competition in Glasgow. The 27-year-old has been struggling with a foot injury and his participation may be limited to the relay, depending on the Jamaican selectors' stance towards Bolt missing the official trial. There were major doubts over whether Bolt would be fit to compete, with the 100 and 200 metres world record holder pulling out of events in Paris and Ostrava earlier in the season.
