10 greatest male sprinters of all time

#6 Tyson Gay

The American sprinter can be adjudged as the second fastest athlete ever behind Usain Bolt when considering his timing of 9.69 seconds in the 100m dash, which is just behind Bolt’s world record. Prior to that, he has been ranked Numero Uno in the world for the 100-metre dash twice in his career.

His best performance on the global stage came forth at the 2007 World Championships where he clinched three gold medals, in the 100m, 200m and the 4x100m relay. Another unique record that this man holds is the fact that he is the only man in history to complete the 100 metres in under 10 seconds, the 200 metres in under 20 seconds and the 400 metres in under 45 seconds.
