…Day 659 of Tebogo Letsile being the 200m Olympic Champion and Africa Record Holder. He won Olympic gold in the 200m in an African record of 19.46, a national record of 9.86 in the 100m, as if that wasn’t enough he went on to run a 400m split of 43.04 in the 4x400m.
I have covered many events across the world - but I haven't witnessed many frenzied stadiums like that of the Botswana National stadium, the moment Collen Kebinatshipi crossed the line in the men's 4x400m.
Personally for me, I think the kind of atmosphere that comes close to that, was when Morocco played Nigeria in the semifinals of AFCON 2025.
For Athletics, this is crazy! The stadium erupted in delirium when they won GOLD, and you have to be happy for them.
Africa can really host the World.
