Jehue Gordon - A Profile
Spectators at the Olympic Stadium, in Berlin, Germany stood in awe at the end of the 2009 World Championship men’s 400 metres hurdles final. American Kerron Clement had successfully defended his title, but that was not the reason so many jaws dropped.
A 17-year-old from the small village of Maraval, in Trinidad and Tobago, had matched strides with the finest one-lap hurdlers in the world, and at the end of the race was within a whisker of climbing the rostrum.
Finishing fourth at the Worlds last August is Jehue Gordon’s biggest achievement on the track...so far. Eleven months later, he looks back fondly on the day he beat one of his idols, 2004 Olympic champion Felix Sanchez.
