Former hurdles World Champion Ryan Brathwaite is gunning for gold at this year’s Olympic Games in London.
“I am not sure how many competitive events I will [be] in before the Olympics, but my goal is to win a medal in London. I have faith in myself, and this year will be a good year – a comeback year for me,” Brathwaite told the SUNDAY SUN in an exclusive interview last week.
His remarks have come amidst suggestions of athletics commentators that Barbados’ hopes of medalling at the upcoming Games are very dim.
“You can’t predict anything; anything could happen. Right now, I’m back to my top training level and I am very active and feeling good. I have confidence that I will be on the medal stand at the London Olympics,” Brathwaite said in his first public comment after a year-long break from the track.
