BOB MATHIAS was a sensation – just a few months after taking up the Decathlon, he became the YOUNGEST EVER Olympic Gold medallist in a Track & Field event, aged just 17!!! 🙌
Thereafter, Mathias dominated the event…World Records and the first man to successfully defend his Decathlon Olympic crown, backing up Gold in London 1948, with further Gold in Helsinki 1952!!!🥇🥇
