An ICON because...

Born on 29 September 1997, Zion is a multi-talented athlete, an entrepreneur and a motivational speaker.

He was born with caudal regression syndrome, a rare condition that affects how the lower part of the body develops in the womb, and didn't have an easy start in life.

He underwent two surgeries at a tender age just so that he could sit up straight, and for sixteen years lived in the American foster care system.

Showing incredible resilience, Zion overcame every difficulty and smashed record after record.

His motto is "I am number one" - inspiring words he lives by, pushing his limits and always trying to improve himself. He's an icon through and through.
