I&#8217;m trying to prove myself.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>De Grasse, who has shown some sparkling form this season running a wind-assisted 9.69sec in the 100m at the Stockholm Diamond League meeting, has come a long way since a troubled adolescence and being laughed at when in his first effort at the shorter sprint he adopted a standing start.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was the sideways run-up like in basketball,&#8221; said De Grasse.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;People in the crowd were laughing. I just looked down and ran.&#8221;He has barely looked back since then and off the track has turned his life around and gained a degree in sociology &#8212; he bears a tattoo of the word &#8216;Hope&#8217; on his inner forearm.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t believe the world is fair,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve seen things all over the world whether it is Doha or in Canada or America.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I see how people live. You drive through neighbourhoods on your way to events.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Brazil was like that. You go past these slum parts and it&#8217;s not fair. If these kids had the opportunity or met someone to give them the opportunity, things would be different.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, before De Grasse can turn his attention to setting the world to rights, he has other ambitions on the track.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I want to be an Olympic champion, world champion, maybe even a world record.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m determined to be the best.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LONDON, United Kingdom, Jul 31- Jamaican legend Usain Bolt is determined to bid a golden farewell to his lustrous track career at the World Athletics Championships in London but Canada&#8217;s Andre de Grasse is eager to gatecrash the party.
