Which Olympic sprinter has a long-term endorsement deal with Puma?

The story behind the answer

The Olympic sprinter with a long-term endorsement deal with Puma is Usain Bolt.

The Jamaican sprinter became one of Puma’s most recognizable athletes after joining the brand as a teenager. Puma supplied his competition, training, and lifestyle apparel and footwear, and Bolt appeared prominently in the company’s international marketing. His partnership was repeatedly renewed, including agreements covering major Olympic cycles.

Bolt’s association with Puma is especially memorable because his competitive career coincided with the brand’s renewed emphasis on track and field. He won Olympic gold in the 100 metres, 200 metres, and 4×100-metre relay, becoming the first man to win the Olympic 100-metre and 200-metre titles at three consecutive Games.

The other options are famous athletes, but they are not the canonical answer to this Puma question. Michael Phelps is strongly associated with swimming, Carl Lewis with athletics and Nike, and Mo Farah with distance running. Bolt’s relationship also involved product development, including the Puma Bolt Collection, rather than being only a logo-placement arrangement.
