Tebogo and Botswana you guys made Africa proud.... Always looking forward to seeing you compete... Alot of talent coming from a small but proud nation.... Love from South Africa ❤
L.Tebogo 🎉 I can't wait to see him collect 100m, 200m,400m gold medals on the next olypics. I think he can also do well on 400m . I'm very happy from South Africa 🇿🇦
Letsile Tebogo ran all the heats and final in the 100m. All the heats and final in the 200 (winning it, btw). And he ran heats and the final for Botswana in the 4x400. And his anchor leg in the 4x400 final pushed the GREAT Rai Benjamin to his max. Everyone is talking about Kishane Thompson as the next big thing in mens sprinting, but . . . Tebogo . . . I mean, TEBOGO. As an American, I say, great job by ALL our guys on the US team. And great job by ALL the Botswana runners. Thrilled for a smaller nation to pop up so high in the Olympic with such a tremendous over-the-top performance.
When Tebogo walks out onto the track with that coldblooded, professional hitman expression on his face, I can't help but hear a voice saying, "You stole his car? And you killed his dog? Do you know who that IS? That's John Wick Tebogo."
Not comparing Tebogo to Kishane, it doesn’t help the athletes in my opinion Tebogo is in a class by himself! He has shown and fulfilled the promise his talent has! Kishane shows promise that is still developing (almost gold in an Olympic is nothing to slide on tho) but Tebogo is an all-round Champ 100, 200, 400…. He is special!!! Great work Tebogo 🙏 🇧🇼
@@eaglementality4380 As of right now, it Kishane clearly has the ability to become another phenomenon. But, you are correct, Tebogo is a proven phenomenon.
@@RB12377you're thinking 2028 Olympics but we're talking about 2025 world championships. Honestly 2025 should be great but 2028 will probably be a loss for us. The oldest guy on team Botswana was 23 meanwhile team USA has a few people that won't be in top form by 2028. Norwood is already 32 abd Quincy Hall is already 26. It'll be interesting to see who the us has by 2028 to run that relay most likely without Norwood, Benjamin, and Hall. Hall could still be in the team but he won't be crazy fast I think
Vernon certainly has a future as a coach. His calm, encouraging demeanor with other team members speaks volumes of the great character he shows on & off the track. Well done Vernon!
I am hoping everyone understands that Botswana’s population is just over 2million. And so to compete strongly against the United States, which really is an entire continent with over 300m people, is the greatest of deals. This is no small feat.
Stade de France has a capacity of 81k people. People generally like the underdog upsetting the status quo in such meets. It’s always impressive when ‘small’ countries do well. St Lucia has 180k people & produced 100m gold & 200m silver and is tied on the medals table with Botswana (2.6million), Uganda (47million) and Chile (20million), Grenada has even fewer people at 125k and has 2 bronze medals tied with Malaysia which has 35m people & Dominica has 73k people and they have a gold and are tied with Pakistan a country of 236m. Botswana has similar population size to Jamaica which has been dominating short distance from 2008. Tebogo is building and standing on shoulders of the likes of Amantle Montsho, hopefully that will inspire more young people to take up track and field as a profession.
Team GB dial these relays in! I may be wrong, but I think this the first time that Great Britain have won a medal in every relay race since London 2017. Congrats 🇬🇧

I don’t see how Hudson Smith split a 43.09 and Vernon’s split was 43.26? It seems like they got the baton at roughly the same time (maybe Hudson got it a little before) and then Vernon passed up Hudson.

The relay splits for the US team were amazing ( all sub 44 except for the lead leg) but can you imagine if they had a healthy Quincy Hall and Michael Norman? I think both were injured that’s why they were not in the final.

Tebogo said “it didn’t work out For him because he used too much energy on the back stretch😮… Togo lost because you were going up against a 400 m hurdle goal champion that’s why you lost if you did a good race, but you weren’t gonna win a race against ride, Benjamin it just wasn’t gonna happen
I actually think if Tebogo wasn’t chasing and had he not done 7 races compared to Rai’s 3 before this he could have beaten Rai. Remember Tebogo is the fastest 300m athlete so on fresh legs or if he switches to the 400m he would even challenge the WR
