Kendal Williams (born September 23, 1995) is an American professional track and field athlete specializing in the sprints.[2] Representing the United States at the 2014 World Junior Championships in Athletics, he earned gold medals in the 100 meters and the 4 × 100 m relay, upsetting teammate and favorite Trayvon Bromell in the 100 m who had earlier that year become the first junior to break the 10-second barrier.[3][4][5]

Williams attended Stanton College Preparatory School where he won multiple state titles and was a high school All-American.[6] He went to Florida State University on scholarship in 2014 and competed for the Seminoles in 2015, placing second in the Atlantic Coast Conference Championships 100 m with a wind-assisted 9.98 seconds run as a freshman.[7] However he transferred to the University of Georgia after his freshman year, following coach Ken Harnden whose contract had not been renewed by Florida State.[8]

In his senior year at Georgia he clocked a 9.99 s run, this time with allowable wind, in the Southeastern Conference Championships 100 m to win and set a new personal best.[9][10] He did not progress out of his heat at the NCAA Division I Championships, but he went on to make the final at the USA Championships, finishing third in his last race representing the Bulldogs.[11][12] He went on to represent the United States at the inaugural Athletics World Cup, earning a silver medal in the 100 m and a gold medal in the 4 × 100 m relay.
