Remember the name Gout Gout

[Optional]

16yo Aussie phenom Gout Gout broke the 56 year old Australian record for 200m with a 20.04

After running a 10.04 in the 100m a day before.

It's the second fastest 200m by an under-18 in history, beaten only by American Erriyon Knighton, who ran 19.84 in 2021, while senior men’s world record holder Usain Bolt’s best under-18s time of 20.13 has been bumped to third all-time.

Check out the video of how this kid brings it home. Seems to visibly speed up over the 2nd 100m

Very nice, Opti. And what a name!

Guy looks like a stud.

Erriyon Knighton later turned out to be a drug cheat btw.

So it's really the fastest time ever by a clean athlete under 20.

Thought this was about a gout flare up...


That kid sure looks like a pure bred Aussie

Born and bred in Brisbane!

Sounds like an Aussie. We'll take him

Well, if he was indeed born there then you can claim him

His 2nd 100m in that race turns out to be a top 10 closing time in history at 9.36 (for adults, not just under 16)

This kid gets his home Olympics in Brisbane in 2032 at 24 years old.

It's going to be called The Gout Games in Brisvegas if he continues on this potential track.

Interesting comparison of that time with the greats here
