When Grand Slam Track came, it came with a very lucrative offer. Win the slam, and 100k is yours. Now, an athlete like Fred Kerley, who has no sponsor, would be one of the top contenders to need it. Unfortunately, that could not happen. The Olympian finished seventh in the men’s 100m final with a time of 10.30 seconds. The race was won by Kenneth Bednarek, who clocked 10.07 seconds, narrowly edging out Jamaica’s Oblique Seville. Now, after the 100k loss, he has made a confession that will put many minds to worry. What is that?
“Coach JB, it’s one of those days—I can’t even get out the car. It feels like the pre-Olympics all over again… legs locked up, stiff like they jammed again. Greatness ” Tweeted the three-time world champion. The Olympics is the greatest stage of all, and being nervous before it is only normal. But despite that, Kerley has a medal in both the Olympics he participated in. A 100m silver in Tokyo and a bronze for the same in Paris.
