Everyone knows Louis Rees-Zammit is quick, but nobody knew he was quite this fast
Wales rugby international Louis Rees-Zammit went head-to-head in a timed sprint against Jeremiah Azu, the 2025 world indoor 60m champion. Azu narrowly won the contest with a time of 4.54 seconds, but Rees-Zammit finished only five hundredths of a second behind at 4.59 seconds, stunning his Bristol Bears teammates.
Azu, who is the first Welsh sprinter to run under 10 seconds in the 100m, praised Rees-Zammit's technique, control, and stride length after the challenge. The contest was filmed ahead of Bristol's fixture against Saracens, highlighting the winger's top-end speed following his return to rugby union.
