Hughes eyeing his third British sprint record with 60m in his sights
Britain's Zharnel Hughes competes in the Men's 200m final on day seven of the World Athletics Championships at the National Athletics Centre in Budapest, Hungary, August 25, 2023
ZHARNEL HUGHES has set his sights on breaking a third British sprint record by eclipsing Dwain Chambers’s best in the 60 metres.
Hughes became Britain’s fastest man over both 100m and 200m in 2023 before injury wrecked his 2024 Olympic hopes in Paris.
The 29-year-old insists there is plenty more to come and has now targeted Chambers’s indoor 60m mark of 6.42 seconds, which has stood for over 15 years.
