Welsh Olympic sprinter Jeremiah Azu took on Premiership rugby’s fastest player Louis Rees-Zammit in a race to discover who is Wales’ fastest speed merchant
The fastest man in Wales raced the fastest winger in the Premiership – and it was some meeting.
Jeremiah Azu, who won bronze in the 2024 Paris Olympics, raced his fellow Welshman Louis Rees-Zammit, one of the fastest wingers in world rugby, but who would win?
Premiership Rugby’s YouTube channel decided to put it to the test, with Jeremiah Azu visiting Rees-Zammit and his Bristol Bears team mates at their training base.
The contest between the pair certainly captured the imaginations of the Welshman’s teammates with lots of good-natured banter flying about ahead of the main event of the day.
So what happened. See for yourself below and marvel at the wheels on both of the Welsh flyers.
