Teenaged Australian sprint sensation Gout Gout has smashed several more records with an astonishing 200m run of 20.29 seconds at the Queensland All-Schools Championships.

The 16-year-old moved to fourth spot on both the Australian alltime senior list and the world overall Under-18 rankings on Sunday, while also setting new Australian and Oceania Under-18 and Under-20 records.

The Australian Under-20 record of 20.41 was previously held by Aidan Murphy.

The 16-year-old Gout - who has been compared to a young Usain Bolt - burst onto the global scene by claiming the silver medal in the 200m at the world junior championships in Peru in August in 20.60.

But Sunday's flying time of 20.29 was in another league.

The Australian senior 200m record of 20.06 was set way back in 1968 by Peter Norman, who claimed the silver medal at the Mexico City Olympics.

Only last week, Gout signed his first professional contract with adidas, whose stable also includes Olympic 100m champ Noah Lyles from the United States.

Gout was born in Brisbane in 2007 after his parents emigrated from South Sudan.
