Top 5 Athletes to Bet on in 2021
Sharing in the glory of the world’s best athletes is a brilliant experience – whether it’s a record-breaking sprint, a personal best high jump, or a sub-2-hour marathon. If the 2021 Olympics (rescheduled from 2020) goes ahead, then it’s an experience even more people will enjoy this summer. But it’s also great to win when they win. So, here are the top 5 athletes to bet on this year.
Tebogo LETSILE – 100 Metres
The first of our suggestions also happens to be the youngest – the 17-year-old Tebogo Letsile. In February of this year, the Botswana runner set a personal best of 10.14 seconds whilst running at the national stadium. In addition to his, he managed to shake things up further by taking 6 seconds of the Botswana national record – thereby also beating the USA record (held by Anthony Swartz since 2017) by 0.01 seconds. He is certainly a runner people are keenly interested in.
