Usain Bolt had a big grin on his face as he blitzed his way into the final of the men's 200-metres.
The Jamaican star played the rest of the field, slowing up as he entered the straight and almost letting Canada's Andre de Grasse pick him off for the win.
With a smile spread across his face, Bolt ran the last 20m with his focus on de Grasse in the lane next to him.

The pair even had a bit of a joke as Bolt cruised to the finish.
"Andre was supposed to slow down! He didn't. I said what are you doing it is the semis?! He said he had to push me, so whatever," Bolt told the BBC.
"I was a bit lazy, I don't know why today, but I executed it."
And apparently Bolt's finding these Olympics quite easy-going - he smiled in his last race too.
