PARIS, FRANCE. By the time he walked off the light purple tartan track of the Stade de France on Monday evening, Tarsis Orogot had already set his own piece of history at the Paris Olympics here in the French capital.

And it was not about his yellow Sponge Bob socks, no. It was about the magnitude of his performance. Orogot had just won his debut race at the Olympics.

He had come through lane 3 to win the men’s 200m Heat 2 in a time of 20.32 seconds at the Paris 2024 Games. “I am happy and I did what I had to do to win the Heat,” he said.
