Meet the 18-year-old white boy who just won a gold medal for Ghana in world unicycling
US-born Ghanaian Unicyclist – Roger Trey Haun Mambora
Eighteen-year-old unicyclist Roger Trey Haun Mambora has become the talk of the town after his historic feat of winning a gold medal for Ghana at the World Unicycling Championships.
Born in the United States, Haun later moved to Ghana with his parents and has since made unicycling his daily pursuit. The young athlete always had a passion for unicycling—a sport involving cycling on a single wheel—and his balance and perseverance have led him to achieve a remarkable feat by conquering the world at just 18 years old. However, reaching this milestone was far from easy.
At 16, Haun began securing medals and competing for Ghana in international competitions. In 2022, he won a bronze and a silver medal, becoming the first Ghanaian to reach the podium on the global stage in unicycling history.
