QUARTER-MILER Renny Quow finished 2009 as the highest ranked TT athlete, male or female, in the world.
The 22-year-old gave a spirited performance at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, qualifying for the final of the Men’s 400m event and placing seventh in a time of 45.22 seconds.
The 2009 season promised to be the breakout year for Quow, and he did not disappoint, starting the season with back-to-back victories in February. He first took the gold at the Millrose Games in New York and followed up the win with another on the US Indoor Circuit, scorching the track to place first at the Reebok Boston Indoor Games in 47.22 seconds.
