IShowSpeed Appears to Beat Olympic Champion Letsile Tebogo in Informal 100m Race

Viewers question the result, citing a suspected slip alongside the lack of official timing.

Overview

  • A widely shared X video from IShowSpeed’s Africa tour shows the streamer crossing ahead of Botswana sprinter Letsile Tebogo in a casual 100m dash.
  • On camera, IShowSpeed declares, “I won that,” and Tebogo responds that he will let him take the win after being offered a rematch.
  • Many viewers point to what looks like a stumble by Tebogo at the start and urge the pair to run it again.
  • The sprint was unsanctioned with no independent timing or officiating, leaving the outcome as an unverified exhibition result.
  • Tebogo’s stature heightened interest in the clip, as he is the 2024 Olympic 200m champion, the world U20 100m record holder, and Botswana’s first sub‑10 sprinter.
