TWO-TIME Olympic Games gold medallist, American Christian Taylor, is back in Barbados, where his parents were born.

Taylor, who landed yesterday, met with athletes of Christ Church Foundation School and the University of the West Indies at Bougainvillea Beach Resort in Maxwell, Christ Church.

He reminded the athletes to remember God in all that they did.

Foundation coach Seibert Straughn, also a two-time Olympian, described the experience as “something special” for his athletes.

“For these athletes to meet an Olympian is something special, and to have a conversation with the Olympian is even better,” he said. (RA)
