Letsile Tebogo won 200m gold at Diamond League in Oslo

Paris 2024 Olympic 200m champion Letsile Tebogo showed who was Number One after a half-lap win at the Diamond League in Oslo, Norway. The Botswanan talent clocked 19.84 sec (+0.2 m/s) in 200m. He was also the only one to break 20 seconds in today’s race.

South African Sinesipho Dambile finished second in 20.12 sec, while Jereem Richards (Trinidad and Tobago) finished third in 20.50 sec.

The highly anticipated duel between Letsile Tebogo and junior world record holder Gout Gout practically didn’t happen, as the Australian fell far behind the Olympic champion and finished sixth in 20.60 sec. Gout Gout, who also leads the world rankings for the season with his junior world record of 19.67 sec, made his Diamond League debut.

One of the stars of the home team from Norway, Henriette Jaeger, achieved a convincing victory in the 400m with 49.52 sec and came as close as possible to her own national record. The Czech Republic’s Lurdes Gloria Manuel finished second in 50.13 sec, and Poland’s Natalia Bukowiecka completed the top three with 50.34 sec.
