Andre De Grasse is coming back to his amazing form of 2016. Working with Coach Rana Reider, Andre De Grasse returned to amazing fitness in 2020, going 9.97 at 100m and 20.24 at 200m. Andre De Grasse also went 9.68 at 100 yards in July 2020. Donovan Bailey, the 1996 Atlanta Champion, and a fellow Canadian, believes that Andre De Grasse is one of the few men who could join Bailey as an Olympic champion.

2021 Tokyo Paralympics: Hannah Cockroft breaking a world record again!

I was there in 1996, and the mayhem that surrounded the 100m Olympic final affected all the 100m finalists but Donovan Bailey. The Canadian kept his cool and took command of the final, and took his gold. Bailey is an Olympic champion, and like Maurice Greene, knows how to handle the Olympic pressure.

Andre De Grasse showed his stuff in Doha 2019. He wants the Olympic title, and he wants it bad. Will he take the Olympic title in 2021?

We will just have to wait and see….

OTTAWA (CAN): 1996 Olympic 100m champion Donovan Bailey believes fellow Canadian Andre De Grasse is one of five men who could succeed him in Tokyo next year. With the news this week that world champion Christian Coleman is set to miss the event due to a doping suspension, Bailey told CBC: “It’s a toss-up. There are easily five men that could be the No. 1 guy in Tokyo and Andre’s in the mix. It’s now a very level playing field.”
