200m champion has maintained his victory in the French capital had nothing to do with a change in training regime.

The 21-year-old defied the odds to beat a quality field in the final and hand little-known its first ever Olympic gold medal. A season of historic achievement by the world U20 100m record holder saw Tebogo richly acknowledged in Monaco on December 1 as the at the World Athletics Awards 2024.

A furious Tara Davis-Woodhall and her husband Hunter Woodhall have blasted Michael Johnson over his comments on why he snubbed field events in his Grand Slam Track League.

Tebogo, the first man from Botswana to break the 10-second barrier in 100m, recognised that his rise to stardom was necessitated by a combination of factors and the environment has never changed at all.

«I didn’t change anything in training – it was just a combination of things I have been working on. It was the same environment, the same places across the continents. Nothing has really changed in our training sessions. The confidence came from the 200m. So that’s how we went about it,” He told .

Jamaican sprinter Junelle Bromfield has disclosed to fiancee NoahLyles the secret behind Jamaica's elite sprinter.

The 200m Paris win in a time of 19.46 seconds, was an African record and Tebogo also ran nine sub-20 second 200m races this season.

He added that the Paris glory was the beginning of better things to come and wants to incorporate consistency into his performance. «Because it was an Olympic year, there was just that drive in me that wanted to keep on going, even though we had to cut some races. But if it was nine times, I believe it. It showed we were really on the right track and that this was just the beginning,» he stated.

After putting Africa on the map as a force to reckon with in sprints this year, Tebogo will hope 2025 will even be better with the World Championships being the key event in the calendar year.
