Gout Gout

Eighteen-year-old Australian sprinter Gout Gout ran 10.00 seconds in the 100m at the Dane Bird-Smith Shield Meet in Brisbane, equalling the fastest legal time by an Australian athlete on home soil. The performance also set a new under-20 national record and secured his qualification for the world under-20 championships. Gout opted to skip the Commonwealth Games to focus on the 200m at the junior event.
