As an Aussie with zero interests in track and field and athletics in General. This kid is the best thing to happen in Australian sport since Errol Gulden. I've never looked forward to an Olympics since 2000 and that was mainly due to Cathy Freeman. This boy is gonna be the biggest athlete we've ever seen in Australia.
So true , as absolutely wonderful as Gout is , he did hold back a bit on his sprint at the end. Which means he could very well decide to push forward even faster at the end in another race. Gout you are a absolute joy to watch running!
Lets hope the media dont overdo their expectations for this young fella and give him time to slowly build up his speed over the next 8 years and dont expect him to break records evry time he runs. He is talent.
He's not even close. There has been a few teenage American phenoms who were running faster than Gout Gout at his age and never improved once they became 20 year olds. The most famous is Erriyon Knighton who ran 19.84 as a 17 year-old. Knighton is still running, made the Olympic finals, but his times haven't improved. Gout Gout has to have the right coach and the desire to improve. After all the human body has it limitations. However, time will tell.
@ Knighton’s 200m mark of 19:49 at the age of 16 has been marked with a “not rectified” due to not meeting anti doping testing requirements. Also, this year he was provisionally suspended by the USADA after testing positive for anabolic steroid - later allowed to complete due to eating contaminated meat (if I’m not mistaken I see a pattern). He has had a troubled time lately. Yes, Gout Gout will need to go through a lot but he seems like a guy destined for greatness and will be working with Noah’s coach soon. I think this guy knows how difficult to succeed given the fact that he is also son of two parents who left Somalia to provide their kids better opportunity.
@TyroneBlackman7 exactly.. you're talking about someone that hasn't even broken 10 for the hundred and 20 for the 200. Yes, he's amazing for his age.. but the distance between where he is now and the world record is massive. So much so, that if he didn't dramatically improve, he'd never be talked about again
Great run from Gout. He looks impressive and ready to conquer the world. In majestically great shape. His attitude is very good and appeared focused. Another gift to the world. Please let him be well managed and groom to fully realise his abundance potential. Thank you Australia 🇦🇺 for giving him and his family this opportunity. You are truly develop.
Gout Gout in my opinion seems well set to take over the sprinting world in his stride. However, he's got to maintain a cool head if he wants to come anywhere close to the likes of Usain Bolt etc.. here's wishing him ALL THE BEST🎉🎉🎉🎉
@therealmasterfire1908 that's easier said than done. Nothing is automatic in athletics learn that. Running fast at 16 means nothing. Transition isn't automatically we have seen many talented junior before him that water down as adults. Stop comparing him to bolt an saying he will break all bolts records. Thats not how life works
I’m differentiating line markings on the track, he collected the baton at 99M mark and had to hesitate and caboose in his momentum. 6/10 at best irrespective of of all the hype. No where near perfect. Can’t wait to see him put together a perfect 10/10. That will be SPECIAL
Some context: Asafa Powell has the fastest officially recorded at 8.68 (2008 Beijing Olympic Final). Bolt 8.69 (2013 Moscow World Champs). Bolt was given 8.65 (2015 Nassau World Relays) but this was a transponder error. Real time in 8.8s... the 8.5-8.6 attributed to Bob Hayes by hand time (1964 Olympic Final) was found to be 9.0 from video analysis
Yes, but he took his foot off the accelerator with 25 meters to go. He has more events to run in, so was just wanting to win it and save resources for his other races. Plus, he is only 16 years old.
@@nmsoccerboyThe sub 10’s came in the 100m event. Gout Gout’s 20.04 came in the 200m, which indeed would have given him 6th place in that event at Paris 2024.
Dude closed it off at 7.93 seconds and finished with a 9.53 split .. that time could've easily shaved that .53 of a second has he not backed off ... Immensely impressive!
At 36 secs he hits max velocity and begins that high knee stride that looks like he is doing the triple jump. Runners begin to slow at the 50m to 60m mark but this kid keeps his MV from 50m to 100m. I counted 35 strides before he shuts it down with 10 meters to go. Love to know his stride length. Anyone know if he is doing triple or long jump too?
@@kofisugar I'm glad he was born in Australia, but honestly, I don't mind where he's from, he's a phenomenal athlete with so much promise. I hope he breaks records and stays the path for a long time injury free. So easy to burn out at that level with this much pressure on you.
@@slimfit767 Original comment stated how no one thought it would be broken in our lifetime and now (after 15 years and counting) someone might have a chance to break it. Obviously no one thinks its a joke.
Did I just see him shut down the engines with 10 meters left and STILL run a 9.533 split? Is that the right time? I' know it's a running start but come on!! That's crazy fast.
@@alexadigitalradio yes it's true. Almost unbelievable but I went frame by frame to make sure I got him at the 100m mark for his split to start his time. It took some effort but it is what it is. Then for him to shut down and do 9.533 at 16 is insane. Haters saying this is not good because adults do this all the time need to remember his age at the time.
Nah they all knew what they were in for and appreciated this moment because in years to come they can say they ran against one of the greatest talents.
I'd love to know the exact distance he ran here. Looks well under 100 mts, as you can see the classic 100m line behind him as he is about to take the baton. If he can improve his start (sound familiar?) and is well coached on and off the track he could be anything.
If you watch the flat 100m races that line us the 100m mark where I started the stopwatch as he crossed it. The line before that is for the 110m hurdles races. Just fyi.
I have a question, knowing nothing about running and such. Is there a physical reason that Gout Gout walks like that, very on his toes? Is it something to do with the muscles, or shoes or is it just his way of walking? Anyway, brilliant young guy - seems to have an amazing future ahead of him and hopefully will only get better and better! :)
Idk but his legs are reminiscent of a deer or hoofed animal and knowing hoofed animals you'll know that they walk like they are wearing high heels. This is not intended to answer your question
Aussie media is already calling him an "Ipswich kid" because he's a potential Olympic medalist. Meanwhile, all the other ordinary Africans in Qld are still just called "Africans". 😂
Pretty sure he can go way faster than that. Boonson ran 9.04s split during this year's U20 Championship from this video (ua-cam.com/video/sc4nUvuaKKo/v-deo.html), so i think he can match that split if he went all out here.
I was gonna say, before watching the actual race, that a 9.53 100m relay split for a guy that's run 10.17 legal is not actually that impressive. But having seen the bad changeover, & Gout shutting it down 15m from the line, it actually was impressive 🤩 Those two things cost him about 0.4 seconds, so that 9.53 would've been a 9.13, which would have been spot on for a 10.17 100m man 👍 🏃♂️
He looks like he time travels in the middle of that run, it’s like he breaks the matrix for a moment, if he can master that, he might just finish before he sets off.
His challenge will be, how much taller he gets with how much extra weight he will carry, these things will determine his physical characteristics and his mind will determine the final outcomes for him. I wish him well. The next 2 -3 years will reveal more as his body changes and develops.
@@alzym1803 I had a growth spurt between 16 to 18 which took me from approx 6ft 2 to 6ft 5, so extra height over the next yr or 2 is plausible. If that does happen, it will be what muscle he adds. delicate balance. It doesn't take much to lose time.
@@mrsxber1916 I agree, I do have tall genes ,but my last growth spurt between 16/18 added extra height on top of the extra height I already had [which is where he is at now] and it was a painful time. I was hunched over at 90degrees for 6 months during this period. I just couldn't stand up straight. It took over a decade after that and some hard jobs to help slowly strengthen my core. I consider myself to be lucky as I only got a slight curvature of the spine from it, but it hasn't been to much of a problem for me now. This is all I'm saying about Gout at his age, he still may have another growth spurt in him. It maybe a little bit it maybe a lot, or nothing at all and it maybe detrimental to him physically or it won't. There will also be the extra muscle he will add as he gets older. This probably won't be much, but again it can be a delicate balance between gaining that extra muscle and using it effectively. He has though got the attention of the best people to help him navigate through this time period and I'm sure they will do all the right things that are in there control to keep him stay in peak condition. I wish him well and hope he stay fit and strong.
I don’t know why this is so impressive because most of the top sprinters can run that same time especially if they’re not running 100 m and they’re running 2 m already running so naturally they’re gonna hit that time
@@kennethcooper9152 he ran a 9.36 split in his 20.04 200m AT 16, a time which ranks him as one of the top 10 200m finishers all ages all time.. this 4x100m split of 9.533 is still phenomenal with a 10m running start and slowing down with 20 to go.. this kid is on another level at the moment. Whether he stands the test of time is another question, especially running every week against the top sprinters. Time will tell. But you gotta give it to him for these crazy times at 16 years old. We're not comparing adults with adults here.
Presuming they were all just as fast, probably about 39.5 seconds accounting for start times (the first split is always the slowest) and assuming they all jogged at the end like Gout Gout
I just learnt his name is actually Gwot Gwot confirmed by his family. It was some administrative error and they want him called Gwot Gwot. He’s a bloody legend isn’t he!
No you have a changeover zone of 20m which is a region 10m before and 10m after the 100m start for each leg. He didn't fully get the baton by his 100m but still had 10m to receive it. He then gets to actually run hard after securing it.

I don’t know why this is so impressive because most of the top sprinters can run that same time especially if they’re not running 100 m and they’re running 2 m already running so naturally they’re gonna hit that time
@@kennethcooper9152 he ran a 9.36 split in his 20.04 200m AT 16, a time which ranks him as one of the top 10 200m finishers all ages all time.. this 4x100m split of 9.533 is still phenomenal with a 10m running start and slowing down with 20 to go.. this kid is on another level at the moment. Whether he stands the test of time is another question, especially running every week against the top sprinters. Time will tell. But you gotta give it to him for these crazy times at 16 years old. We're not comparing adults with adults here.
What would the time be if he had 3 brother's
Presuming they were all just as fast, probably about 39.5 seconds accounting for start times (the first split is always the slowest) and assuming they all jogged at the end like Gout Gout
The next bolt is officially here.
Brother slows down 20m mark. Great times ahead👍💯
Even the great Usain Bolt has been very impressed by Gout Gout, reminding him of himself at that age.
I just learnt his name is actually Gwot Gwot confirmed by his family. It was some administrative error and they want him called Gwot Gwot. He’s a bloody legend isn’t he!
Was he outside the change zone?
no
Something tells me this is a foreshadowing to his actual 100 in the years to come
The kid has got us watching australian college athletics😂
Isn''t this high school?
Yeh HS
Gwot's his name?
Damn this video’s kinda blowing up! People probsbly see ‘9.53’ in the title and assume it’s in the flat lmao.
For real😂😂
Fr 😂
Should be top 5 in the world before he is twenty
Didn't Queensland change too late at the final stage?
No you have a changeover zone of 20m which is a region 10m before and 10m after the 100m start for each leg. He didn't fully get the baton by his 100m but still had 10m to receive it. He then gets to actually run hard after securing it.
He has all the time he needs to smash up all sprinting records in the world
He has killir instinct at final push ,which means he has extra power in final breath,to defeat the opposing athletes...
I'm excited too but there is still a mountain to climb to get to Bolts level. Do you think Bolt is going to say it came easy?
I like the energy
Carl Lewis/ Bolt combo
Jesus he has gigantic strides
