“Training is going good. Getting back in that mode.” he’d declared around the start of May 2025. But little did we know he’d pull off such a spectacle, this soon. In 2021, this track star was the one who had come the closest to Usain Bolt’s formidable mark in the 100m than anyone has in the last few years. And now? It looks like he’s slowly getting back into that form. No wonder, the track and field community is stunned. Any guesses who he is?
Trayvon Bromell. Remember that name because what he’s just pulled off is simply unbelievable. The 2025 season started for him with warm-up runs in the 60 metres. After a decent outing in that distance, he switched over to the 200, finishing on the podium in both his runs. But, when he ran his first 100m run of the year recently, the results stunned everyone…
Yes, at the Pure Athletics Global Invitational, Trayvon Bromell just dropped a 9.91s (+0.7) timing in his 100m season opener. This is special because, Bromell’s time is now the second-fastest in the world this season and his fastest 100m race since 2022, when he dropped a 9.76s time, which to date, remains the second fastest after Usain Bolt’s world record.
Thus, reacting to this, one of the fans wrote, “Trayvon Bromell is back from the dead dominate the field with a 9.91 (0.7) clocking his fastest time since 2022. Will he flop again? I don’t know let’s see.”
This story is developing…
