The Jamaican superstar, when asked where his next big stop would be, said: "I think I will be going to the Commonwealth Games (2010, New Delhi)... my coach will decide."

Bolt, whose effortless running in the past one year or so has baffled sports medicine experts and biomechanists worldwide, then added to the excitement by sounding a seemingly casual warning for all those who dare to race against him.

Next target? "I said 9.4. I think it will stop at 9.4 but you never know. We'll just keep racing," the 22-year-old said after his mesmerizing run.

Bolt's latest record came exactly a year after he set the Bird's Nest in Beijing aflame with a sizzling 9.69-sec run, more than a hand-shaking distance away from his rivals.
