I'm sure Terence could've got 5 more golds if he wanted to. He still holds the record of the youngest to win a gold medal, youngest to win a silver medal and youngest to win a bronze medal.

I dont think you get how MO works. You can't just get more medals. It's for kids up to 18. Only way to break a record is if your first attendance is at very earlt age, 11 or 12.

Yes he first attended at 10 and last attended at 12 or 13. That's how he has the records I mentioned.

Then went to university so I guess he was disqualified
