USA’s Rai Benjamin added world gold to his Olympic crown, winning the 400m hurdles in 46.52 at the World Athletics Championships Tokyo 25 on Friday (19).
He managed to maintain his momentum, despite knocking down the final barrier, and dipped to victory to hold off Alison dos Santos (46.84) and Abderrahman Samba (47.06).
Dos Santos adds this silver to the gold he gained in 2022, while Samba returns to the world podium for the first time since Doha in 2019, when he also claimed bronze.
They both passed defending champion Karsten Warholm in the closing stages, as did Ezekiel Nathaniel, who clocked a Nigerian record of 47.11 to pip him into fifth place and move to 10th on the world all-time list.
