guided the men’s four-by-100-meter relay team to a silver medal in last night’s final at the Paris Olympic Games.
Simbine, who was denied a medal in the men’s 100m final earlier this week, came home in a time of 8.78 seconds in the last leg finally bagging a well-earned Olympic medal. “The medal is just the cherry on top. I have proven myself to the game, I have proven myself to my competitors and that for me is enough. I am inspiring a new generation in Africa and that’s really huge. I don’t take it very lightly and its really great and now I have a medal but that doesn’t describe me I am a sprinter, I am an athlete but I think this medal is for everyone who wished a medal upon me from different countries, South Africa, Africa, America the whole world.
