OSLO (AP) — Usain Bolt recovered from a poor start Thursday to win the 100 meters at the Diamond League meet in Oslo in 9.79 seconds, 0.06 ahead of Asafa Powell.

Bolt, a three-time Olympic champion, only managed to overtake Powell in the closing stages of the race and remain undefeated in 2012.

Lerone Clarke completed a top-three sweep for Jamaica at the Bislett Games, finishing in 10.10.

Bolt hasn't lost since failing to defend his gold at the 2011 world championships in South Korea after being disqualified in the final for a false start.
