Yoshihide Kiryu, 10.01 seconds, (+0.9)
Wow
Yoshihide Kiryu, 10.01 seconds, (+0.9)
Wow
He is the youth record holder as well (10.19)
He was born in 1995
Holy Sh*t that's a fast time for his age. Just unbelievable...
Whats the World Junior Record for the 100?
According to Ato Boldon's retweet it is the second fastest junior time ever!!!
Here is his youth record (I believe it's been posted before)
The WJR is by Darrel Brown of Trinidad and Tobago. Also 10.01 but with 0.0 wind. Yoshihide is ahead of Jeff Demps though (10.01 with +1.6)
his birthdate is lited as december 15th 1995 so he has all of this season and all of next season as a junior, too bad he was not born 3 weeks later january 1996 then he would have 3 full seasons left as a junior.
Here's the video
He looks very small. He but he shouldn't be done growing. His turnover also looks maxed out. Would be nice if he could dip below 10 while still a junior.
If he gets the wind and stays consistent he should do it anytime.
His time, according to Ato Boldon ties the WJR (apparently the whatever time was faster than 10.01 Boldon says was not legitimate)
Can't wait for an extended analysis from Brett Larner
Another race under 10 soon? We have Africans, Australian Aboriginals, Meztizos/Native Americans (?), and white people all under 10 so far, maybe East Asians next?
Then Rupp will go under 10 and the world will end.
Second all-time Japanese I think Koi Ito ran a 10 flat near the end of the last century. yeah so getting an NR and under 10.00 as a Junior seems in the cards for this young man.
thats one fast rice burner!

that woud be mark lewis-francis 9.97 from 1/4s of '01wc in edmonton when wind-gauge was adjudged as faulty

Yeah. Boldon called it "bogus" so maybe he knows whether the tailwind was strong. Lewis-Francis' official PR is 'only' 10.04

may i add that i saw darrell's 10.01 in 1/4s of '03wc in paris on tv
he cruised it
he really shouda gone 9.95 ( maybe even 9.92/9.93 ) in the semi or final but "tightened" up in those
morally, the wjr shoud be at worst 9.95 & i woudn't consider any junior "better" until they run faster than that "basic"
Also he wins the final (the record was in the semis) with a wind aided (-2.7) 10.03

doesn't matter diddly-squat whether ato thinks it was a tailwind or not
it coud have been a -ve wind he ran it into for all we know
only thing that counts is that the sprint officials ( specifically the wind-gauge judge ) said gauge wasn't working & the times weren't to be considered for any record purposes
Koji Ito's ten flat was +1.9, versus 10.01 with +0.9. He should hopefully be able to NR and break ten seconds as a junior.
The new Lemaitre?
