Two-time Olympic gold medalist Shaunae Miller-Uibo added another jewel to her crown, the
World Championship title, on Friday night, at Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon.
It was the one title missing from Miller-Uibo’s resume. She has won the 400 meters at World
Youth, World Juniors, World Indoors and the Olympic Games. The talented Bahamian
quarter-miler cruised to her first World Outdoor Championship title, running 49.11 seconds
out of lane three. She was in a class of her own.
I am honoured to have witnessed such a historical feat in person and congratulated Miller-
Uibo on her major accomplishment. She is indeed a stellar athlete and a great ambassador for
our country. The Bahamas is indebted to Miller-Uibo.
Congratulations to Shaunae Miller-Uibo, The Bahamas’ Golden Girl.
