The current Olympic champion in the triple jump, Christian Taylor, visited BH delegation in Rio.
Taylor, who is a former roommate “across the pond” to our shot putter Kemal Mesic, visited our athletes in the Olympic Village.
“Kemal is silly, but like most of Bosnians he has a big heart and I’m really glad to meet with him again,” said Taylor.
One of the best athletes of all times won the gold medal by jumping 17.21 meters on the Olympic Games in London in 2012.
Taylor won gold at the World Championships in 2011 and 2015 and his personal record is 18.21 meters, which is second on the eternal list, right behind the legendary Jonathan Edwards who jumped 18.21 meters back in 1995.
