It's time to start a thread for the 21 year old Lachlan Kennedy of Australia. He has already broken his 60 meters p.b. twice this year in the last
3 weeks with times of 6.55 and 6.43 over the 60 meters. He then scorched to a new p.b. in the 100 meters of 10.17 -2.1 for the win! That is equivalent to a time around 10.05 with no wind and a potential sub 10 with a positive legal wind. Watch out for this young Australian Phenom in near future!

I hope he continues with the 60 metre, I want him to break the WR soon

Many fans don't realise that a white lady has had the world record in the 60 meters for many, many decades now. The Great Irina Privalova!
She was one of the best female sprinters to ever compete in track and field. I hope her record lasts for many more years!
 
I loved watching Irina with her galloping running style. My favourite race of hers was when Gail Devers edged past her in a 100m and Privalova pegged her back again - almost unheard of in a mere 100m.

Let's see how Lachlan (Lachie pronounced "Lockie") goes. At the moment I think this new crop will reduce Browning to finishing his career. Injuries start multiplying and he's a qualified lawyer now. He's had his time in the sun.
Kennedy just turned 21 in November
