Matthew Boling, an eighteen-year-old senior student at Strake Jesuit College Prep in Houston, Texas took the entire world by storm by setting a new record for the fastest American under 20 to run 100m.

This is due to the fact that Boling had the advantage of a 4.2mph tailwind behind him.

Recalling his incredible performance to the Houston Chronicle, he said: “It definitely felt good. My block start was pretty good and right out of the gate I knew it was going to be fast, so I decided to turn it up a little bit and ran my best. I was really happy with the time.

“I just have to get ready for that four seconds where I’m nervous and then, like, after that, it’s just smooth.”

Boling’s parents are proud of him, and LADbible reports that his father, Mark, told media reporters: “He just has a work ethic that is beyond anything I’ve ever seen from anybody.”
