Usain Bolt was the fastest teenager in the world. American Erriyon Knighton is faster.
Erriyon Knighton seized the lead halfway through a 200-meter race last month. He hasn’t looked back, and now he’s running with a giant.
Knighton’s mark not only bettered Bolt’s Under-20 world record of 19.93. It pulled him to within .30 seconds of Bolt’s overall 200-meter world record. “If one junior in history, who is considered the greatest sprinter of all time, has broken 20 , and now this kid is half a second—which is a lifetime in the sprints—faster, then yes. It’s not an exaggeration to say that this is the most Beamon-esque junior performance that we have seen.”
