Temat postu: whatever the nickname
whatever the nickname,

The X-Man would like it to be known that his real nickname is "Peewee" and he has the word tattooed on his right forearm to prove it. "My grandmother gave the name to me," says Xavier Carter. "I guess it was because I was such a small kid when I was growing up."
Gary Evans,

, who has coached Carter from his schoolboy days, still chortles at the incongruity of it. "How they came up with Peewee I don't know," he says. "His dad brought him to me when he was 11 years old and he was probably 5ft 11in."
Now 6ft 3in and with a reputation in world athletics to match,

, Carter has had to get used to the fact that the old sobriquet will no longer do. The new one looks suspiciously as if it was dreamed up by a marketing agency but Carter pleads innocence, insisting it is something the international media has thrust upon him since his stunning breakthrough last summer.
"A couple of high-school coaches used to call me the X-Man but nobody in the States really calls me that," he says. "It's a thing that's come from Europe."
Although it has yet to be elevated to the status of permanent body art, it is a tag that looks certain to stick,

, particularly since Carter has a habit of celebrating his track triumphs by crossing his arms.
He hopes to perform the victory gesture next weekend when he makes the first of three appearances in Britain this summer at the Norwich Union Glasgow Grand Prix,

, where he will take on Tim Benjamin in the 400m.
His first visit to Scotland? Carter nods, but only after a hasty glance at his manager, Mark Block, for confirmation. For a 21-year-old who had never travelled outside America before last June, life has been a disorientating whirlwind since he became the first athlete since Jesse Owens to win four track titles at the American collegiate championships.
If that achievement captured the imagination of the United States, it was his performance in Lausanne a month later that made the world take notice. His winning time in a 200m race was a dazzling 19.63sec - the second fastest in history behind Michael Johnson's seemingly unreachable world record of 19.32 set at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta.
His six-year deal with Nike is said to be one of the most lucrative ever - Carter is now one of the sport's hottest properties. Yet, remarkably, this year will be his first full season on the professional circuit.
Last summer's mini-tour of duty in Europe led to an attack of home-sickness,

, which is why Evans has been brought in to accompany him.
"We felt that the more familiar people we could put around him, the more comfortable he would feel," says Evans. "Last year,

, during the four to five meets he had on the circuit,

, he was going back and forth to his home in the States."
Carter,

, who used to wear Michael Johnson running spikes as a kid in Florida,

, is now aiming to step into the great man's shoes by lowering his world mark, possibly at this summer's World Championships on the super-fast Osaka track,

, where he will be concentrating on the 200m. But his priority is to win the gold.
Evans says Carter has always been motivated by crossing the line first, not by running fast times. "When he was in high school we used to ask him, 'What was your time?' But often he didn't even wait to find out. He just walked off the track after his race and didn't want to know about his time. He just likes to win."
Block traces his client's competitive instinct to his background in American football,

. Carter was rated as the best high-school wide receiver in the country but now concentrates on the track,

.
"I've been around Xavier for almost a year now and I've seen how he competes differently to other track and field athletes," says Block. "He's used to playing football,

, which is not measured by time but by winning."
The last time Carter was in Britain, for an indoor meeting in Birmingham in February, he did manage to cross the line first in a 400m race only to be disqualified for stepping out of his lane. "He was as upset as he gets,

," recalls Block. Anything but a triumph in Glasgow is likely to produce another X-rated response.
