Usain Bolt is disqualified from the 100m final at the World Championships as fellow Jamaican Yohan Blake takes gold.

Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt has been disqualified from the 100m final at the World Athletics Championships in Daegu after a false start.

The 100m and 200m world record holder moved out of the blocks early before taking a few strides and ripping of his vest in frustration.

In Bolt's absence fellow countryman Yohan Blake claimed the gold, clocking a time of 9.93 seconds.

USA's Walter Dix took the silver, while 35-year-old Kim Collins finished with the bronze medal.
