Sub-10 100m. Sub-20 200m. Sub-44 400m. There is just one man in history that can check all three of those boxes, and that man’s name is Wayde van Niekerk.

The 23-year-old mega talent from South Africa, who won the 400m World title last summer in Beijing in a blistering 43.48 (#4 all-time), today entered uncharted territory with his 9.98 100m Bloemfontein, South Africa.

That’s good enough to make Michael Johnson— the best 200m/400m runner in history— blush.

Sub 10, sub 20, sub 44. That's crazy. Great things could be ahead for @WaydeDreamer https://t.co/xOiMg88Tlw
