Meet The New Fastest Teenager In The World

[@matomem]

He needs a solid team behind him that will protect him and give him the right guidance. We don't want him to be influenced by people who will lead him astray.

[@新型コロナは空事です]

If course he will get all the right guidance. He is black. People will be jumping over each other to give him the best chance at really making it in the sport. If he were white or Asian even, all of a sudden there will be barriers, temptations and handicaps galore blocking his path to success. Hirakawa Kiryu found that out the hard way. He still ran sub ten a few times though.

[@Thebigfisho_]

He already has a solid team behind him. His coach Diana Sheppard supplies him with greatness that can carry him along way. Di is a great coach.

I definitely agree that the important thing is that Gout Gout is well guided, so that he can steer clear of the hype, stay healthy, and focus on becoming the world-class athlete he surely will become. Even if we notice: His capability of achieving record-breaking times at such a young age His stance, strength, stride and speed at 100m and 200m (which are all unnervingly reminiscent of another certain record breaking sprinter) The fact that the 2032 Olympics are due to take place in Brisbane...

I’m not sure he will get invited to a diamond league meet until he competes internationally at a world level and does at least fairly well. Knighton didn’t appear in a diamond league meet until 2022, the year after his break out 2021 season. If there was a Diamond League event in Australia, he might have had a shot getting 1 spot because I think each Diamond League event is required to leave at least 1 possible space for an athlete of their own country, but since there are no Diamond League meets in Australia, he will have a tough time getting a spot at such a young age. Once he starts beating professional athletes, he will get noticed and will eventually get invited to the Diamond Leauge.
