Nickecoy Bramwell, la nueva perla del atletismo: con 16 batió récord juvenil de Bolt que duró 22 años

Jamaica está en éxtasis. El atletismo de ese país ya tiene su nueva perla que ilusiona de cara a futuro: Nickecoy Bramwell.

Bramwell, de 16 años, hizo historia el último fin de semana en su campeonato nacional juvenil, también denominados los Juegos Carifta, rompiendo incluso un registro del mismísimo Usain Bolt, ícono y leyenda deportiva.

Nickecoy dominó de principio a fin la prueba de 400 metros planos, una de las principales del ‘Rayo’, y se quedó con el triunfo con una marca de 47.27 segundos.

El crono le permitió a Bramwell ser el nuevo récord Sub-17 de Jamaica, superando en siete centésimas los 47.34 con los que Bolt se impuso en 2002, consigna Diario Marca.

Sí, Nickecoy Bramwelld destrozó el récord de Usain Bolt que alcanzó a durar 22 años.

“Estoy deseando que lleguen cosas mejores… sabía que había batido el récord”, expresó Bramwelld luego de su victoria.
