Tosin Ogunode

Tosin Joseph Ogunode is a Nigerian-born sprinter who competes internationally for Qatar. Born on March 2, 1994, in Nigeria, he is the younger brother of Femi Ogunode, another Nigerian-turned-Qatari sprinter who won two gold medals at the 2010 Asian Games.

Ogunode made an immediate impact at the start of his career in 2014, setting an Asian indoor record of 6.50 seconds for the 60 metres at the Northern Arizona University indoor facility in the United States. This performance broke Talal Mansour's twenty-year-old record for the distance and briefly placed him at the top of the world rankings.

As a representative of Qatar, Ogunode has continued the family tradition of sprint excellence established by his brother. His record-breaking indoor performances demonstrate his explosive speed and highlight his status as one of the top sprinters competing for an Asian nation.
