Botswana's track star Letsile Tebogo believes Gout Gout has the talent but should be wary of being rushed into the senior circuit who are hungry for everything.
Olympic 200m champion Letsile Tebogo has warned Australian teen sensation Gout Gout on Noah Lyles and the hunger of senior sprinters who are desperate to win everything.
Ahead of the Maurie Plant Meet in Melbourne this weekend, Tebogo will be one of the biggest names to grace the competition and is scheduled to race in the 400m.
)
While Gout will aim to steal the show in the Peter Norman Memorial 200m – a race honouring the Olympic icon whose 56-year Australian record the rising star broke with his 20.04s run at just 16 years old.
Speaking with Australian reporters, Tebogo communicated his readiness for the highly anticipated meet and gave his opinion on the 17-year-old prospect.

"His style of running, it’s top notch. I believe he’s going to be the next big thing for the continent," said the 2024 Male World Athletics Track Athlete of the Year.

Why Usain Bolt's stance on US college system not being good for Jamaicans is a debatable opinion
Olympic icon Usain Bolt damned the US college system being beneficial to Jamaican athletes. He gave his reasons, but they can be debatable considering NCAAs also has its benefits through the years.
"He can be one of the best, he can be in the history books. If he continues the hunger that he has right now, he could go very far," he concluded.
)
Interestingly, Tebogo was also a teenage phenom having won the 100m and placed second in the 200m at the 2021 and 2022 World Athletics Under-20 Championships. In 2021, he became the first Botswana athlete to claim the 100m title at any World Championships level.
Not resting on his oars, at the 2023 senior World Championships in Budapest, he won 100m silver medal (becoming the first African man in history to achieve such a feat) and followed it up with 200m bronze medal five days later.

'One surprise I've witnessed him keep' - How Gabby Thomas and Spencer McManes' love story culminated in a romantic rooftop engagement
All to know about the sweet love story and engagement of Olympic champion Gabby Thomas and Spencer McManes.
However, his moment of world recognition came at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, where he stunned pre-race favourite Noah Lyles to win 200m gold with an African Record time of 19.46s. Having edged out the American duo of Kenneth Bednarek and Lyles, he added silver as part of the Botswana quartet in the 4x400m.
)
Tebogo will be gunning to have another memorable 2025 season but has adviced Gout who earlier this year was invited to train with Lyles at the Pure Athletics group in Florida.
"The best advice I was told was that Rome wasn’t built in a day. I couldn’t get the concept at first," said the 21-year-old African sprint star.
"Just introduce him slowly to the seniors… because with the seniors we are all hungry to get the money, the medals and everything."
)
For Gout who has been dubbed the next Usain Bolt, he has his ambitions of being the greatest Australian sprinter ever.
"At times it does get a bit overwhelming but, now that I’ve grown up, I’m a bit mature and my circle really helps me stay level and I’m just trying to make a name for myself. My dream is I want to be one of the best track and field athletes Australia has ever seen.
"I want to go to the '28 Olympics in LA. I want to go to the Brisbane Olympics. And I just want to show the world that I’m Gout and how I’m here to stay and the Olympics is the best place to do that," he said in an interview with 7News.
