Botswanian sprinter Letsile Tebogo is not known to be involved in a relationship with anyone. This is largely because he is focused on his dream of breaking Usain Bolt’s records.

Tebogo rose to fame after winning the 100m gold at the 2021 World Athletics U20 Championships in Nairobi, in effect, becoming the first Botswana athlete to win a gold medal in the 100m event at World Championship level.
The following year, at the 2022 World Athletics U20 Championships in Cali, Tebogo broke the U20 World Record in the 100m event in Usain Bolt-esque style.

He is also the reigning 200 meter African Champion, after winning the 2022 African Athletics Senior championships at Saint Pierre, Mauritius.
Winning Gold just five days after his 19th birthday, the feat makes him the youngest Gold medalist in the competition history for the event.

Tebogo set a new national record in the 100 m at the Botswana Athletics Association championships with a time of 10.08 seconds on 19 February 2022.
He improved this mark two months later by clocking a time of 9.96 seconds at the Gaborone International Meet, setting a new under-20 world record.
On 15 July 2022, Tebogo further improved this mark in his debut race at the World athletics championships held in Eugene, Oregon with a time of 9.94 seconds.
The following month he broke his record again, clocking a 9.91 second run at the 100 metres final during the 2022 World Athletics U20 Championships.
Tebogo presently holds the two fastest times ever run by a teenager.
