Maybe it was because he was racing the fastest man of all-time. Maybe it was because he's having a great year so far.

But whatever the reason, Angelo Taylor ran the fastest 200m of his career this past weekend, finishing second to Usain Bolt at the Shanghai Diamond League meet on Sunday.

AT ended with a time of 20.34, good for the eighth fastest time in the world at 200m this year.

As reported by IAAF.org:

Angelo Taylor, the two-time Olympic 400m Hurdles champion, showed up the more experienced sprinters in the field with his 20.34 runner-up finish, a personal best, with American Ryan Bailey third in 20.43.
