On February 16, 2024, at the USA Indoor Championships in Albuquerque, Grant Holloway cleared the five 1.067 m hurdles of the 60 m hurdles in 7.27 s, an average of 29.71 km/h. Run mostly indoors, the 60 m hurdles matches the opening part of an outdoor hurdle race.

That same winter, on March 3, 2024, Bahamian Devynne Charlton set the women's record in Glasgow, in 7.65 s. Holloway dominated the event indoors: according to his biography, he did not lose an indoor sprint hurdles race between March 2014 and December 2025. He won the world indoor 60 m hurdles title in 2022 in Belgrade, in 2024 in Glasgow and in 2025 in Nanjing.

Holloway is above all a 110 m hurdles specialist: Olympic champion in Paris in 2024 after silver in Tokyo, world champion in 2019, 2022 and 2023, he has run the distance in 12.81 s. At the University of Florida he also regularly ran the 300 m and relays and competed in the long jump.
