O no man how could you say that,but you are kind of close, i think they underestimated Walcott because when did he last

Yuh could take a trini outta TT, but you will never take away his ingrained self-loathing and scornful cynicism!

TOP OF THE WORLD! Jubilation as Keshorn bags gold, Richards silver

Walcott, T&T’s last Olympic medallist when he produced a bronze medal at the 2016 Brazil games, yesterday captured that elusive World Championship medal in the men’s javelin, hurling the spear 88.16 metres on his fourth attempt in the final, which was good enough to beat a class field of some of the best athletes in the discipline.Two-time world champion Anderson Peters, of Grenada, placed second with a measurement of 87.38 metres. Peters, who won the event in Doha 2019 and Eugene 2022, produced the silver medal-winning attempt on his third throw, while American Curtis Thompson was third with a throw of 88.67m. Germany’s Julian Weber, who produced the leading throw in qualifying with 87.21m, was only able to manage 86.11 on his second throw and placed fifth. Kenya’s 2015 world champion Julius Yego was sixth with a best distance of 85.54 metres. Defending world and Olympic champion Neeraj Chopra was down the field in eighth, producing 84.03 metres on his third attempt.

Meanwhile, T&T sprinter Richards, the last man to produce an individual World Championship medal with bronze in the men’s 200m in London 2017, produced a new national record in the men’s 400 metres final yesterday. He clocked 43.72 seconds, placing second and separating two Botswanans in the medal order. Busang Kebinatshipi took the gold with a world-leading time of 43.53 seconds, while his countryman, Bayapo Ndori, claimed bronze in 44.20 seconds, a season’s best.

Yesterday’s medal added to Richards’ 2017 200 metres bronze and the gold he captured in that year’s championship in the men’s 4x400 metres relay final, along with Jarrin Solomon, Machel Cedenio and Lalonde Gordon.​Richards entered the Tokyo final with the third fastest time from the semi-final round. He clocked 44.12 seconds in a loaded heat number two on Tuesday. Kebinatshipi had a world-leading time of 43.61 seconds in that heat, while Jamaican Rusheen McDonald ran 44.04 seconds.

No lie Bro.

His run up, the grip on the javelin, and the pelt is eerily identical to Narine.

I can see why he won.
