Trayvon Bromell, the US Track and Field sprinter, has won big in life. In his recent updates, it was revealed that Bromell has tied the knot with his long-time girlfriend, Alexys Lauryn. Well, while this is surely feel-good news for the track star, it is pertinent to note that Bromell’s bag of records is also brimming.

When the Track and Field Reports shared the list of injured athletes for 2023, Bromell’s fans were in for a shock. Among the 15 athletes announced, Trayvon Bromell also missed out on the season. As the details emerged, it was found that Bromell had to undergo surgery for a bone spur in the ankle.
However, this was not the first time Bromell’s success has been cut short by injuries. Back in 2016, the US athlete began to feel certain discomfort in his heels. Without any other option left, Bromell immediately resorted to a couple of surgeries, along with several months in rehab. Thus, the heights that Bromell could have reached have been cut short severely by surgeries. But with him starting a new life now, it remains to be seen whether his lady luck plays out and gets him to the top of his game soon.
