This amazing talent in the span of 4wks from 10 Jun - 6 Jul '17 ran an incredible 19.84, 9.94, 30.81 & 43.62 back-to-back & then went on to almost pull off the rare 200/400m double @'17 London WC missing out on 200m Gold by just 0.03s :( Looked really good for most of last season since coming back from that terrible injury running 44.08 & 44.17 in the lead up to Budapest WC before finishing 3rd in his semi & 7th in the Final :( At almost 32, would love nothing more than to see both Wayde & Kirani dip under 44s once again & hopefully get back on the podium again 🤞

It's unfortunate because we all wonder what could have been. I am not counting him out, though. He seems to be a man of true grit. He did amazing things. He has medals and will forever be in the history books

He will never be the athlete he was previously. Any talk of him winning a medal in Paris is not based on current form to be honest.

Even Gardiner should be in this club but I don't think he cares to even try. Then again you can say MJ also had the legs to do a sub 10.
