On Friday, the Welsh sprinter went even better by securing his first global gold at the World Indoor Championships in China. The 23-year-old’s landmark victory with his time of 6.49sec matching the personal best he set two weeks ago, let out an almighty roar in celebration.
Mohammed Bajaber was a shing light in Harambee Stars 3-3 draw against The Gambia but how did he perform at the Alassane Quattara Stadium in Ivory Coast?
Azu told the that his ambition still remains to rule the world and this victory was the perfect way to announce his arrival to the global stage. «I said at the Europeans I want to take over the world — and this is just the start of our journey,» Azu said.
Azu, who is Britain’s first world indoor 60m champion since , exploded into tears after his victory. He maintained that his emotions were because of his double glotry that surprisingly has come in 2025.
Harambee Stars scored a last-minute goal to secure a thrilling 3-3 draw with The Gambia and after the stalemate, they have it all to do to claim a first-ever World Cup ticket.
«When I saw that it was me, I just exploded, it was just raw emotion. There hasn’t been a European and world champion in the same year so that’s a bit of history there. When you hear those words together, it really hits a place.»
Azu’s milestone month makes up for hislast summer, when he was disqualified from his 100m heat. While he did go on to claim a bronze in the 4x100m relay in Paris, he decided to leave his training group in Italy and reunite with his old coach Helen James in Cardiff — a move that has paid off in spades.
After his glory over 60m indoors, Azu will now turn his attention to 100m outdoors, with the World Championships in Tokyo in September in his sights.
Harambee Stars coach Benni McCarthy still has hopes of clinching a World Cup place despite a draw away to the Gambia as he looks to freshen up the team for Gabon on Sunday.
In 2024, he became the first Welshman to run the 100m in under 10 seconds in wind-legal conditions. Azu is a three-time British champion, twice indoors over 60m, once outdoors over 100m and a European Champion in the 4×100 metre relay. Azu was born in the Netherlands, and raised in Wales. He is of Ghanaian descent.
