Gatorade Zero - Abby Wambach vs Usain Bolt: I Can Do Better (2021)
Anything Usain Bolt can do, Abby Wambach can do too.
Twenty-four years after Mia Hamm and Michael Jordan went head-to-head for Gatorade Zero's "Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better" commercial, Wambach, 40, and Bolt, 34, face off in an updated version of the iconic clip .
In the ad, the Olympians drink Gatorade before flipping tires, racing on stationary bikes, playing an intense game of ping pong and trying to skate very badly. Of course, the duo also try out each other's signature sports: running and football.
American Wambach and Jamaican sprinter Bolt are now both retired, but Wambach got back into "training mode" for the Gatorade spot. "My wife [Glennon Doyle] said, 'Was this like you trained for the World Cup?' " she says. "I'm like 'Yeah, just about.' I just crush it."
Fun fact: the two athletes from 1997 also briefly appear in the video.
