Lightning quick, strong and with a junior rugby league pedigree, Pais Wisil sounds like an obvious target for the PNG Chiefs ahead of their NRL debut in 2028.
But Papua New Guinea's fastest man has his eyes firmly set on creating more sprinting history for his homeland at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games and beyond.
Wisil, 25, holds the PNG national records for 60m and 100m and has every intention of going faster in the near future.
He made history by qualifying for the 60m semis at last year's world indoors and has high hopes for what he and his teammates can achieve in the 100m and 4x100m relay at the Commonwealth Games starting in late July.
"I'm so happy with our team right now; there are a lot of sprinters coming through," the softly spoken Wisil told AAP at the Oceania championships in Darwin.
