Why Did Usain Bolt Retire So Early? Can He Still ?Unretire? Like Tom Brady?

Dominating three Olympics is just an incredible feat by anyone who does it. Usain Bolt won eight Olympic gold medals in his career and was unstoppable for some time. He is the current world record holder of both the 100 and 200-meters competitions. It is highly unlikely that anyone can come close to that, let alone beat it. But, after the 2016 Rio Olympics, he suffered a major injury that changed the course of his athletics career.

Expected to once again prove a difference, he pulled up during the 4×100-meters relay competition and ended his dreams of winning yet another medal. However, soon after he got injured, he announced his retirement from athletics when he was just 30. Thus, it turned out to be a surprising decision.

Usain Bolt retires after 2017 World Championships

After finishing third in the 100-meters competition in London, he took part in the 4×100-meters relay event and was the anchor, for the team. When people expected him to take the baton forward, he pulled up seriously and could not finish the race. His teammates came to help him as he labored down to the finish line. This signaled the end of his athletics career. He never looked back as he focused on other ventures. He tweeted about his update, after that.

“Sadly I have a tear of the proximal myotendinous junction of biceps femoris in my left hamstring with partial retraction. 3 months rehab.”

Torn hamstrings usually take around three months to heal. Having achieved everything in his career, he decided to call it quits. A legendary career that spanned nearly a decade and a half, he won 14 World Championship medals, which is the highest for a male athlete.

Going completely to another talking point, Tom Brady returned to the NFL after announcing his retirement, looking to finish his career with a bang.

Tom Brady’s return sparks revival

Brady is 44 YO and still looks in great shape. This may have caused Bolt a spark as he posted an Instagram video of him running around the racetrack. He captioned how he might be back to race or else stay retired. The Paris 2024 Olympics is just two years away. If at all Usain Bolt trains hard and comes back to race for one last time, it is surely going to be the mother of all comebacks.

“Might need to unretire myself or is it to late for me?”

He is the fastest man alive. That tag has a punch to it and to be regarded as the fastest amongst all humans is indeed an honorary title. Brady is one of the best in the business, and his return has motivated different athletes to try out their luck. So, will he RETURN?
