Ervin was 22.6 in Fukuoka. This is the fastest first 50 in textile ever. Look it up.
Yes Ervin! Love it that this guy is still making it happen in his thirties and such a great ambassador for the sport. Want to see him take the win in the 50.
Actually, Ervin was 22.60 at the feet at 2001 Worlds… It may have been a different meet, but I think the 22.38 is the fastest he’s been on the feet.
Finis are not the only guys to beleive in you Anthony …LOL
Thought he looked stuck on the laneline! Couldn’t tell if it was on purpose or not though, apparently not.
