What a Time! The Historic Record was broken by teenager
At just 16 years old, Gout has smashed Peter Norman's 55-year-old Australian 200m record. Norman's mark from the 1968 Olympics was surpassed last Saturday, December 7, when young champion clocked an incredible 20.04 seconds at the Australian Schools Championships in Brisbane.
The talented teenager, already a silver medalist in the World Under-20 Championships, won the race decisively at the Queensland Athletics Centre. His time is even faster than a 16-year-old Usain Bolt’s 20.13 seconds, sparking excitement about his future.
Gout’s achievement bridges generations, inspiring athletes in the age of artificial intelligence.
What a time to witness the rewriting of history by the champions of tomorrow.
