Career

Hamed originally began to compete for his birth country Syria. He represented the country at the World Championships in 1991 and 1993[citation needed].

Hamed then changed his nationality to Australia but was ineligible for the 1996 Summer Olympics[1] but started at the World Championships in the 1997 and 1999 World Championships. In February 1999 in Sydney he achieved a career best time of 48.87 seconds.

When Hamed was not selected for the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, he appealed to the Australian Olympic Committee but lost.[2] As a result, he competed for Syria at the Olympics instead.
