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