BENGALURU: Kenny Bednarek knows his days as a sprinter will likely be long gone by the time the 2036 Olympics come around, but the American says he will definitely be watching from the stands if India is chosen to host the global sports showpiece in 10 years' time.
The 27-year-old, who won silver in the 200 meters at the Tokyo and Paris Games, is in a relationship with Indian golfer Sharmila Nicollet and says the country's rich mix of cultures, languages and traditions would make it the ideal Olympic host.
"I actually like that idea," he told Reuters in a video interview.
"I've always said that to be able to have an Olympics or a world championships in India or anywhere else in the world would be nice just because part of being in sports is to travel the world and see different cultures.
