Tyrone Pillay

As the curtain falls on my 15 year career in the sport, I have mixed emotions but I can only smile and say I have enjoyed every minute of doing what I was meant to do. Tomorrow at 9:00am(SA Time) I compete for the last time at the South African National Championships.

Noah has to be thinking world record is possible. His top end speed on the straight has improved dramatically last couple years. Needs to figure out how to reach that same top end speed on the curve. That’s where the opportunity is.

@trackspice Ta lou might just take this one

This went viral and it’s a problem. Jolien Buomkwo is NOT the problem and deserves all the praise for what she did for her team! 👏🏾 Track rarely gets this type of media coverage outside the Olympics, but desperately needs it. Great track athletes break records and do amazing things in our sport displaying the superhuman and ultra competitive nature of the sport. We desperately want sports fans to see it and believe if they did they’d watch more, resulting in better TV coverage and more sponsors, which ultimately means true pro sport compensation and respect for struggling elite track athletes. The problem is despite the display of being a great team player, it showed the sport to the world as a cute laugh at best and reinforced what many already believe that it is an amateur Olympic sport, instead of showing it as elite athleticism and competitiveness. Despite what you might want to believe, it is the latter that draws fans, television rights deals, and sponsors. That isn’t an opinion. It is a proven fact. TWO THINGS CAN BE TRUE: You can applaud and feel great about her effort and feel this being showed to the world was not helpful in the sport’s struggle to be seen as professional high level elite competition. One last time: THIS ISSUE IS ABOUT THE SPORT, NOT THE ATHLETE.

Look at you, @JabhiMabuza 😈🔥 Will be cheering you on alongside the @GoliathGamingZA fam at @RedBullZA Kumite this weekend! 🇿🇦❤️ #GoliathGamingArmy

I started #PlayFIFALikeAGirl along side @GabbiBrondani last year, this year we partnered with @its_Cyndi with the idea always being to build a space to intro ladies to FIFA and get more women competing in the regular leagues and competitions in South Africa.

Sometimes there is no easy way.
