Usain Bolt, the Jamaican world record holder, has said that track and field needs to have a “personality” for it to be popular again. The competition in women’s sprinting is intense between the Jamaican trio of Jackson, Thompson-Herah, and Fraser-Pryce. Bolt believes that an entertaining personality, like himself, in women’s racing would elevate the status of the sport.
Bolt is one of the most decorated Olympians of all time. The Jamaican is the record holder in the 100m and the 200m races. He’s also widely regarded as the men’s sprinting GOAT.
Along with his incredible performances on the track, Bolt is also known for his charming and electric personality. The now-retired athlete also recently released a reggae music album which has been doing incredibly well for itself.

What does Usain Bolt think athletics is missing?
The Jamaican trio of Elaine Thompsone-Herah, Shelly-Ann Fraser Pryce and Shericka Jackson, made their country proud by creating history at the Summer Olympics in Tokyo. They managed the clean sweep in the 100m race and are performing at the absolute peak of their abilities. While the competition is fierce and intense, Bolt believes it could use a little more spice.
Being one of the most promising and renowned personalities sailing from Jamaica, he said, “They’re really keeping the sport exciting. All we need is a personality — most of the ladies are really quiet and chill. What’s missing is the performance that I always put on that people really love.”
