    USA sprinter Quincy Wilson had a summer to remember, and sure enough, he won't forget his 2024 experience at the Paris Olympics ... ever.

    Wilson shared as much recently as he looked back at everything he went through on his way to becoming an Olympic gold medalist. On X (formerly Twitter), the teenage sensation shared a video montage featuring clips of him competing, including those from his earlier years.

    The video also highlighted some of his interviews and noteworthy statements, as well as the doubts and criticisms he received online during the U.S. Olympic trials.

    "I don't feel any pressure, I have nothing to lose," Wilson said in one of his interviews featured in the video.

    Wilson's video ended with him being declared an Olympic gold medalist, making him the youngest male track and field athlete to win an Olympic gold in US history.

    He captioned the post with a strong admission about his experience, saying that "this is a summer that’ll never be forgotten."

    Quincy Wilson's gold medal came from the 4x400-meter relay. While he didn't run in the final, he participated in the qualifying round along with USA teammates Vernon Norwood, Bryce Deadmon and Christopher Bailey.

    Wilson is now back in the USA and preparing for his return to school at Bullis School in Maryland. However, he's still clearly riding the Olympic high, as he's been seen at the Fanatics Fest meeting the likes of Jay-Z and many other athletes and celebrities.
