The World's Fastest Man Takes Our Very Special Q&A

Published by Sports Magazine on December 19, 2014

What’s your earliest sporting memory?
“My dad coming into my room early in the morning and waking me up to watch cricket. He had a TV in his room, but he couldn’t wake my mum up to watch the cricket so he had to come in my room. That’s how I first started out loving cricket.”

If you could be a professional in any other sport, what would it be?
“I’d play football for Manchester United, definitely. I’m a winger. I don’t know if there’s space for me now though. This new coach seems kinda serious [laughs].”

You can only watch three sports for the rest of your life. What are they?
“Football, track and field... and I love the NBA, so I’d have to pick that. I basically support whichever team Kevin Garnett is playing for, so right now it’s Brooklyn Nets. He’s a legend, but I hope he’s gonna retire soon because I need to support a better team [laughs].”

What TV show are you into?
“I’m a big fan of The Big Bang Theory and Two and a Half Men. And somebody got me hooked on a series called The Walking Dead. It’s serious, man: zombies and stuff. Crazy.”
