Sprinting phenom Abdul Hakim Sani Brown is setting the bar high — very high — for his career. And the 18-year-old just might have a chance to measure himself side by side against that bar known as Usain Bolt at the world athletics championships in August.

"He's the world record-holder and this is it for him," Sani Brown said of the Jamaican on Monday, a night after completing the 100-200 sprint double at the national championships. "I've never run with him so I want to go against him at the world championships, especially in the 100.

"I don't really think about running a nine, but ultimately, my goal is to break the world record."
