Gout Gout: Breaking Records, Not Ceilings

Seventeen-year-old Australian sprinter Gout Gout is making waves on the international track scene after breaking his national record in his first professional race in Europe.

Gout clocked 20.02 seconds to claim victory in the 200 meters at the Golden Spike meet in Ostrava, a notable achievement that places him among the world's top Under-20 sprinters.

Despite having run faster wind-assisted times, Gout's recent legal times continue to draw comparisons with track legends like Usain Bolt. The Australian sensation is set to compete in more European events before preparing for the world championships in Tokyo.
