Rewrite this sentence using "Following" in the beginning. Johnson's son Michael, followed his father's footsteps many years later and also set a world record. Would this be correct Ms Sue? (Following in his father's footsteps, Michael also set a world record many years later).
Good sentence.

Yes, your rewritten sentence using "Following" in the beginning is correct. It reads: "Following in his father's footsteps, Michael also set a world record many years later."
To rewrite the original sentence, you moved the phrase "Following in his father's footsteps" to the beginning of the sentence, followed by a comma. This helps to emphasize this additional information about Michael before stating the main action of setting a world record. By doing this, you have created a clearer and more concise sentence that highlights Michael's connection to his father. Good job!
