As he prepares to make a big impression on the world scene this year, Australian teenage sprinting star Gout Gout sent a warning to Noah Lyles. The 17-year-old’s incredible feats and similarities to Usain Bolt have garnered international attention.
After breaking Bolt’s Under-16 200-meter record the previous year, he set a time of 20.04 to beat the Australian national record, which had been held by Peter Norman for 56 years. When the World Championships go to Tokyo in September of this year, success on the international scene is imminent. Gout intends to race in Tokyo, and based on the timings he posts, it appears he is more than prepared to make the announcement.
Gout had a warning on a podcast with another American track athlete Grant Holloway and Noah Lyles, who took home gold in the 100m and bronze in that event. Promotion “I’m attempting to show you what’s happening. “I want to make a big impression,” he said to Beyond the Records. “I’ll do whatever it takes to let Noah know I’m vying for that position. “I know it’s a learning experience, but I secretly hope to win a medal, make it to the final, and either run up to Noah or try to chase him down.” Promotion
He is already under international scrutiny, and the parallels to Bolt, the nine-time Olympic gold medalist, are unproductive. “I’m trying to be the next Gout Gout,” Gout stated in response to the discussion. Everyone aspires to be the next big thing after being compared to Usain Bolt.
It’s obviously wonderful to be compared to him, but I’m Gout Gout, and I want to become as well-known as him. “I want the future generation to believe that they will be the next Gout Gout. That’s how I want to be. He said, “It crosses my mind sometimes,” in response to a question about whether or not people already look up to him. Simply put, I am myself, and sometimes people literally look up to me and try to be me. It’s absurd to consider
The next Noah Lyles is attempting to become the next icon by emulating Usain Bolt. “It’s crazy and surreal to be the next icon.” When the Olympics came along last summer, Gout was a relative unknown, but he is already thinking about Los Angeles in 2028. After then, when he will just be 24 years old, the Games will travel to his hometown of Brisbane. “That’s definitely the end goal (to run at Brisbane 2032),” he stated. Los Angeles, of course, in 2028. I’m excited about it.
“I’ll be aiming to head there and also the World Championships this year in Tokyo. I’m aiming to be there as well
The Gout vs Lyles rivalry already looks to be a fiery one we can hopefully enjoy for years to come.
