Why Christian Coleman Deserves Some Respect...Despite His Somewhat Wavering Career
Description
2019 World Champion Christian Coleman has had a somewhat rocky career since he won his world title 5 years ago. 6th and 5th place finishes in the 100m at the last two World Championships, failing to make the 2024 Olympic 100m team, but at the same time cementing himself as the 60m Dash GOAT after World Indoor gold in 2024. But despite the criticism he receives for his up and down career, he deserves some grace for being a great person and athlete on an off the track.
