World Record Bonus for Beating Usain Bolt's 100m Sprint Increased to $10 Million for 2027 Enhanced Games

NEW YORK, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Enhanced (NYSE: ENHA), the elite sports competition and personalized performance products company is excited to announce an increase in prize money for the Men's 100m Sprint at the upcoming 2027 Enhanced Games. Going forward if the winner of the men's race breaks the current world record of 9.58 seconds he will be rewarded with a $10,000,000 prize.

In a shareholder letter published via his substack (https://maximilianbmartin.substack.com/p/the-inaugural-enhanced-games), Enhanced CEO Maximilian Martin discussed the world record and 21 personal bests achieved by athletes last weekend. He provided context in outlining the incredible success these athletes had in improving their times or lifts after long retirements, challenging training conditions and gaps in competitive performances while using medically supervised enhancement protocols. The results are staggering – 13 athletes set 21 new personal bests.

In this letter, Martin and Enhanced have upped the ante. For the 2027 Enhanced Games men's sprinting final, the world record prize pool will jump dramatically to $10 million for a sprinter who can break the 9.58 benchmark established by Usain Bolt.

Other key takeaways from Martin's shareholder letter included:

• The inaugural Enhanced Games secured over $32 million in contracted sponsorship deal value, with seven months still remaining in the year
• Viewership data across TV, streaming, print, radio, and social media exceeded internal expectation - with full numbers to be released within days

• Every single athlete cleared medical screenings and walked away healthy and safe, validating the Enhanced Medical Program and its IRB-approved clinical study
• Existing sponsors have expressed strong interest in returning for the 2027 Games, with significant inbound interest already arriving post-event from new athletes, sponsors, and host venues
