Usain Bolt has praised teen sprinter Gout Gout after the young athlete broke his record.
The 16-year-old sprint prodigy has taken the track world by storm this year, blazing through the 100 and 200 meters and claiming multiple Australian under-16 records. In a jaw-dropping moment at the September U20 World Championships in Peru, Gout ran the 200 meters in 20.60 seconds—edging out Usain Bolt’s 2002 record by a razor-thin 0.01 seconds.
