British sprinter Louie Hinchliffe has announced his decision to turn professional after winning an Olympic medal in Paris this summer.
The 22-year-old has enjoyed a dramatic rise, culminating in helping the British relay team take bronze in the men’s 4×100 metres.
Hinchliffe will forego his final year at the University of Houston – where he trained under nine-time Olympic gold medallist Carl Lewis – to pursue sprinting professionally.
In June he became US college (NCAA) 100m champion after clocking 9.95secs, and claimed victory at the British Championships later that month to qualify for the Paris Games.
Hinchliffe just missed out on a place in the 100m final, but claimed a medal with bronze in the relay event alongside team-mates Zharnel Hughes, Jeremiah Azu and Nethaneel Mitchell-Blake.
