The brilliant Canadian victory in the men’s relay race | SVT Sports

– It’s good to finish elegantly. We felt we had a good chance to get to the top of the podium and we wanted to shoot it and I was here to be part of that team and it was such an honor. We look forward to more gold medals together in the future, De Grasse tells SVT Sport.

And he came out in the semi-finals of the 100 meters after a moderate 10.21, and he did not appear at all in the form that he presented tonight.

– I rested and received treatment. We’re close to the Canadian border and there were a lot of fans there and we felt their support,” says de Grasse, who didn’t start the 200m due to feelings.

The team has now claimed gold, silver and bronze medals in recent tournaments.

De Grasse ran from runner-up WC

De Grasse ran away from Marvin Brassey, who finished second in the individual race, to take home the gold medal. The Canadian had an 8.79 with a flying start while Bracy dropped to 8.95 after a failed substitution.

It looked a little murky on the seemingly late switch but the official score remained in the end. Great Britain took bronze in the narrow final. Notably, the United States, who just ahead of Jamaica on the women’s side, came from a hat-trick in the individual race, but the two favorites were defeated.

Noah Lyle clearly felt let down in the 200m race the day before yesterday as he won in 19.31. Today, he ran the second leg and hit an 8.94 with a flying start, but was beaten by Canadian Jerome Blake who scored 8.86. Here, the main trump card of the United States has been transformed into a minus variant. Instead of leading, the team had to chase and feel the pressure with so many teams around them.
