Gout Gout ‘angry’ as coach shares furious reaction after receiving apology
Gout Gout’s coach has shared how he truly reacted to being beaten at the Maurie Plant Meet – and he wasn’t happy. The teenage sprinting sensation put on a brave face after finishing four hundredths of a second behind Lachlan Kennedy in the 200m, but it was a different story once the cameras were off.
Kennedy, 21, needed a personal best 20.26-second time to get the better of Australia’s 17-year-old short-distance prodigy. A capacity crowd had turned out in Melbourne to watch Gout pit his wits against a field of sprinters who were all at least four years his senior.
