The legendary CARL LEWIS and his sensational achievements are well-storied and become even more impressive with the passing of time…1 of only 4 Olympic athletes in history to have won 9 x Olympic Gold medals!!!🥇
Specifically in the 200m he won Olympic Gold & Silver alongside being World no.1 numerous times! 🔥 His PB of 19.75 secs was to within 0.03 secs of the then World Record and his many feats across the sprints (100m, 200m & 4x100m Relay) and the Long Jump were matched by his longevity; culminating in being named “Sportsman of the Century” by the IOC in 1999!!! ✊
