Here's the vid of the meet where Tebogo crushed that 9.91, with Nkrumie coming in for silver.
These top 3 guys, Tebogo, Nkrumie, and maybe especially Boonson, who is super-young, are interesting to follow. Clearly Tebogo is in the lead, but the others are coming. Crap start by Boonson in the final. He will be coming for Nkrumie, who really needs to improve his maintenance and race distribution.

Botswana's Letsile Tebogo smashed the U20 world record in the men's 100m at U20 Worlds, running a 9.91 despite slowing down to finger wag at his opponents to...
And his name sounds Nigerian or something, what’s the deal? Maybe if he is a foreigner he will be able to compete in Paris if he doesn’t make the JAM team?
So, what name sounds Jamaican to you? Does his name have to have a Bob or a Marley in it to sound Jamaican? I suppose you think it's odd America had an Apolo Ohno and a Suni Lee representing the country at the Olympics too.
All I said was that based on his surname he might have eligibility to compete for another nation if he doesn't make the JAM team. Making the JAM team will be tough.
And yeah, he needs speed. Tough to tell from vids, but his maintenance just didn't look good. Yeah, he lost his form, but started before that. His race distribution reminds me of Fisher's.
You know Fisher, right? Or are you just a poser troll? OK look him up and get back to us like you are an expert, lol
Fisher maxxed-out at 9.94 (1.4), but IMO might have gone into the 9.8's with a different distribution. Man, some of his 0-70m looked exactly like this guy's.
We'll see how he develops. Racing Tebogo last year might have been a big wake-up call.
I want to see if Bailey-Cole can do anything this year. He lost a step last year, but still went 10.04 (0.6) last year at champs. Will be hard to make that team, but hey, it's not an Olympic year.
