The only sprinter to win the 100m and 200m golds at three consecutive Olympics (2008, 2012 and 2016) said he did not have any symptoms of COVID-19, the respiratory illness caused by the novel coronavirus.
Bolt said he took the test on Saturday, the day after he celebrated his birthday at a bash where partygoers danced to the hit "Lockdown" by Jamaican reggae singer Koffee.
"Best birthday ever," Bolt, who retired from athletics in 2017, wrote on Twitter, posting a photo of himself holding his daughter, Olympia, who was born in May.
