“Now I’m a world champion and nobody will be able to ever take that away from me.” That was Christian Coleman’s declaration to the world six years ago when he dropped a 9.76 second-finish in Doha— bold, defiant, etched in gold. Back then, his words weren’t just prideful, they were prophetic. Every time the starter’s pistol cracked, it wasn’t just the start of a race — it was the sound of a king being crowned. Coleman didn’t just run on the track; he ignited. Stadiums fell silent in suspense, and in the blink of an eye, he was gone — a blur of muscle and fire. But six years can change everything.
Today, the roar of the crowd isn’t quite as certain. The spotlight still finds Coleman, but it shares its glow with younger stars and hungrier challengers. The result? The 29-year-old has yet to win a single individual track event this year. The only first-place finish came on April 19, in the men’s 4x100m relay at the Tom Jones Memorial. However, his most recent race was in the Star Athletics Sprint Series, where he stood second in the men’s 100m final. Seeing all these happenings, Coach Rob had something to say.
In his latest YouTube video (June 17), Coach Rob brought up the discussion of Christian Coleman’s horrible run on the track. There, he said, “He [Christian Coleman] doesn’t have any more medals of any color from that 2019 moment up until now. He’s still competing on the pro circuit.”
