Gout Gout Wins Again, Denied Another Record by Headwind in Monaco

MONACO, JUL 11 – Gout Gout extended his unbeaten European record with a 20.10s win while Animesh Kujur set a personal best finishing fourth in the Under-23 200m at Monaco Diamond League.

  • Seventeen-Year-Old Australian sprinter Gout Gout won the Under-23 200m invitational race at the Monaco Diamond League in 20.10 seconds on July 11, 2025.
  • Gout opted out of the main 200m League race to gradually adjust to high-level competition ahead of the World Championships, amid media questions and comparisons to Usain Bolt.
  • Despite a strong headwind of-1.9 m/s that slowed times, Gout led from start to finish, leaving experienced sprinters from Botswana and South Africa behind and signing autographs for fans.
  • Gout identified his ability to reach high speed as his key advantage, explaining that he needs to concentrate on the initial 100 meters. Meanwhile, Bolt has commented that Gout's running style resembles how he looked when he was younger.
  • Gout's victory marked a milestone in his European season and continued his progression toward representing Australia at senior World Championships in Tokyo this September.
