Minister of Youth, Sports & Culture, the Hon. Mario K Bowleg congratulates Shaunae Miller-Uibo.

Two-time Olympic gold medalist Shaunae Miller-Uibo added another jewel to her crown, the World Championship title, on Friday night, at Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon.

It was the one title missing from Miller-Uibo’s resume. She has won the 400 meters at World Youth, World Juniors, World Indoors and the Olympic Games. The talented Bahamian quarter-miler cruised to her first World Outdoor Championship title, running 49.11 seconds out of lane three. She was in a class of her own.  

I am honoured to have witnessed such a historical feat in person and congratulated Miller-Uibo on her major accomplishment. She is indeed a stellar athlete and a great ambassador for our country. The Bahamas is indebted to Miller-Uibo.  

Congratulations to Shaunae Miller-Uibo, The Bahamas’ Golden Girl.
