PUMA has signed 18-year-old American sprinter Christian Miller as its latest brand ambassador.

Miller burst onto the national scene in July 2023 with a 100m win at the 2023 USATF U20 Outdoor Track & Field Championships. His time of 10.08 seconds was the fourth-fastest high school 100m time in American history. 

In April 2024, Miller ran a 100m personal best of 9.93 seconds, setting a new Under-18 world record and an American Under-20 record. The performance marked the third fastest time ever by an Under-20. 

Miller competed at the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Trials in June where he finished fifth in the men's 100m final. 

In July, Miller announced that he would forgo his collegiate career and turn pro. The #1 recruit in the Class of 2024 and Gatorade National Player of the Year had previously signed a National Letter of Intent to run at University of Georgia.

“Christian is without doubt the most exciting male sprint prospect we have seen in a long time, and he is already making history on the track by setting junior records,” said Pascal Rolling, Director Sports Marketing at PUMA. “His performances are well beyond his years, and his decision to turn professional speaks volumes about his character. We are ecstatic to have him join the PUMA family.”

“I want to be the best, and to be number one you have to surround yourself with the greatest in the game – for me that’s always been PUMA,” said Miller. “The brand is synonymous with speed and when you look at their roster of athletes, they’re draped in gold. That’s what I’m aspiring to achieve and I’m excited to get the season underway.”
