Boldon responds; Forbes says meet will go on Ato Boldon.
Speaking for the first time since a disagreement of sorts prevented his prized athlete from running in Freeport, Grand Bahama, foreign coach and world-renowned track analyst and sportscaster Ato Boldon, a former World Champion sprinter and Olympic medalist, fired back at meet organizer Jerial Forbes, stating that there was nothing in place to facilitate a well-structured track and field meet.
Jamaican World Under-20 Double Sprint Champion Briana Williams was one of the headliners of the Neymour Athletics Christmas Odd Distance Track and Field Classic in December. A subdued version of the classic took place on Saturday December 19, at the Grand Bahama (GB) Sports Complex in Freeport. The first day of the meet was canceled.
