TOKYO (Reuters) - Neil Duncanson, the man who has analysed every Olympic 100 metres final in forensic detail, is predicting three Americans in the Tokyo showdown and says Trayvon Bromell has gold in his grasp if he gets a clean start.

Duncanson is the author of "The Fastest Man on Earth - The inside stories of the Olympic men's 100 metres champions" which has just been published by Welbeck in a fourth edition after being originally written ahead of the 1988 Seoul Games.
