USA vs Jamaica vs France · Women's 4x400m Final · London

One hundredth of a second. That is all that stood between gold and silver as the anchor legs sprinted down the home straight under the London Stadium lights. Courtney Okolo carries the baton for the United States, Iona McPherson — fresh off winning the individual 400m — is closing fast for Jamaica, and Floria Guei is pushing hard for France. Every split, every exchange, every stride through four legs comes down to a finish-line margin that the human eye simply cannot separate. Brionna Thomas, Courtney Okolo, and the rest of the American squad are in the mix against a Jamaica team anchored by one of the most dangerous individual 400m runners in the field. Christine Day, Janae Russell, and McPherson make Jamaica a genuine threat from the gun, while Natalia Kaczmarek gives Poland every chance to medal, and Zoey Clark leads a dangerous Great Britain team in lane six.
