At the Zurich Diamond League event held on September 5, 2024, Olympic champion Letsile Tebogo once again demonstrated his exceptional talent by securing a remarkable victory in the 200 meter race. Overcoming adverse weather conditions, Mr. Tebogo clocked an impressive time of 19.55 seconds, defeating a formidable field that included Olympic silver medalist Kenny Bednarek and fellow American runner Erriyon Knighton.
