If you're interested in American track and field athletes, you're sure to know one such figure: Triwan Brommel. This male 100-meter sprinter, who was born in the United States in 1995 and is only one meter 75 meters tall, as early as 2015, at the age of 19, he performed well in the men's 100 meters preliminary round of the National Championships, bursting into people's sight with a super speed of 9.84 seconds, and even surpassed Bolt in one fell swoop to become the fastest person under 20 years old in human history. Foreign media once thought that the United States had given birth to "another Bolt".
However, for various reasons, he has never won a gold medal in the Olympic Games or the World Championships. As a result, Triwan Bromel became the only one among the ten fastest men's 100m athletes in history who had not won a gold medal (olympic or world championship), which became not only his shortcoming, but also the biggest regret of his career since his debut. In an interview with foreign media, Triwan Bromel said: "Winning a medal (olympic or world championship) allows me to get the respect I deserve. ”
Triwan Bromel once said in an interview that what bored him was not competition or training, but that he still had to prove his strength and ability to some people because he had not won a gold medal in the competition. Despite running a good result, being well known, and having a reputation, it is still called the 9 second 9 level by some people, and even the range of 9 seconds 8 is not scored. In addition, the top ten people in history have won medals in the competition, which makes Triwan Bromel feel more stressed. "I set new goals for the 2022 season and it was clear that my goal was to run out of the 9.6 seconds level and then faster. Trying to catch up with idol Bolt," Triwan Brommel said in an interview.
In this regard, netizens have different opinions. Some say that he is a "tragic hero on the 100-meter track", who has not been able to get a good opportunity to prove himself and turn the tables against the wind. Some people say that today's Triwan Bromel is disease-free, healthy, in good condition, and has not won a gold medal is purely because of lack of strength rather than no chance. And more voices are looking forward to The next performance of Choi Wang Bromel, especially after he said that he would try to run shoulder to shoulder Bolt, the expectations of netizens can be said to be higher. In fact, in my opinion, whether it is ridicule, encouragement, support or opposition, it will become the wind under his feet and the motivation in his heart when he runs, supporting him to keep moving forward.
In fact, Triwan Bromel is definitely a talented player, as early as 2014, he broke through the 10-second mark in one fell swoop, obtained a score of 9.97 seconds, shocked the world, entered people's vision, and became the first player in history to break the 10-second mark in his youth. In 2015, Triwan Bromel ran 9.84 seconds in the 100m, becoming the fastest runner in his 20-year-old age group, and in the same year, Choiwang Bromel won the bronze medal in the men's 100m at the Beijing World Championships, winning the first medal in his career. But the envy of talent, unfortunately, happened on the men's 4X100m relay track at the Rio 2016 Olympics. Triwan Bromel accidentally fell and was injured and eventually left the Olympic arena in his wheelchair. Since then, Triwan Bromel's recovery road has also been very unsmooth, resulting in his old injuries and new injuries, and he has been recuperating for a long time before returning to the field and announcing his comeback, in fact, he can recover from two Achilles tendon injuries and run to today's level, which is already very good.
In short, no matter what, we sincerely wish Bromel can complete his goals in the upcoming 2022 season, win his own gold medal in the competition, break through the cocoon and understand his long-cherished wishes. We are so looking forward to it and so hopefully!
