Olympic Games silver medallist Fred Kerley has insisted that the best sprinters in the world come from the USA and it will take a lot more to qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympics.
The 2022 World 100m champion Fred Kerley has admitted that it will be an uphill task to qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games in the 100m and 200m during the national trials.
Kerley, speaking during an interview with Jamaica Gleaner, Kerley noted that America has produced the best sprinters who are setting world leads and running faster times and the national trials will certainly prove to be nerve wracking.

The 29-year-old made his indoor debut this season at the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix where he finished fourth in the race won by track rival and compatriot Noah Lyles.
The Olympic Games silver medallist then proceeded to the Hurricane Invitational where he won the 100m and proceeded to the Hurricane Alumni Invitational to also win the 100m race in great fashion.
