Kirani is one of the greatest athletes to ever come out of the English speaking Caribbean. A great example of self discipline and tenacity too.

Great athlete indeed…did Grenada and the Caribbean proud
2021-08-05 20:13:21
Grenada has produced much for its size. Imagine both Grenada and Antigua have sent credible 4x4 teams to the Olympics

Mcleod may the edge on him if you don't consider longevity. He's a World and Olympic champion.

Nah. Crawfie would rank among T&T greats. Not Caribbean greats.
2021-08-05 22:03:03
I see the conversation is no longer about congratulating Kirani James on his recent success. Typical in this forum

I see you included Kim collins. He has only won World Champs medals....never an olympic medal. Crawford has a gold at the olympics

Interestingly...Alleyne Francique from Grenada who placed 4th in the 400m in Athens in 2004 and is a former world indoor champ in the same event is Fred Kerley's coach.
My homeland's pet events seem to be 400m men and javelin men.
Was hoping for a medal for Anderson Peters in javelin...but it was not meant to be.
I know Lindon very well...I worked with his dad for many years...if you see his dad..you understand the genetic stock he comes from...and PARTLY why he has given such a good account of himself in such a gruelling event. The physical gifts are fine...but the guy is driven and disciplined too.

But I bet in the end you did the smart thing and googled the Javelin thrower name. I am proud of you

Collins’ body of work far outstrips Crawfie’s, despite no Olympic medal

Similar to Crawford, a great for his country. Not at the Caribbean level

A great T&T javelin thrower. Kinda like a one hit wonder. We treasure him and his massive accomplishment nonetheless.
