About Cheikh Touré

  • Cheikh Tidiane Touré (born January 25, 1970) is a Senegal-born French athlete who specialised in the long jump.
  • He retired after the 2003 season. His best international performance came in the 1997 World Championships, where he finished 7th. His personal best jump was 8.46, a result he achieved in Bad Langensalza on June 15, 1997.
  • As this happened before he became a French citizen, the result was an African record which stood for over twelve years.
  • Ignisious Gaisah of Ghana jumped 8.51 m at the 2006 African Championships in Athletics, but as the tail wind was too strong (+3.7 m/s) the result could not become a new record [1].
  • On July 4, 2009, Godfrey Khotso Mokoena of South Africa jumped 8.50 m in Madrid setting a new record.
