Rai Benjamin Wins U.S. 4x400 Gold

The team that emerged victorious included Chris Bailey, Vernon Norwood, and Bryce Deadmon, and anchoring the team was Rai Benjamin. Each one of them played their role very well. Norwood began well, setting the stage for the rest of the team. Deadmon took over and extended this lead to two meters, thus setting a nice platform for Benjamin to finish the race. Rai Benjamin was the man of the day, as he sealed gold for the U.S. through his Olympic record timing of 2:54.43. Botswana took silver with 2:54.53, while Great Britain finished third at 2:55.83.

Rai Benjamin Wins Second Gold

Stiff opposition came from the challenge by Tebogo, the 200-meter Olympic gold medalist. Tebogo returned the best split of all the athletes at 43.04 seconds. Not very far back, the clocking in his leg of the race remained at 43.18 seconds for Benjamin. That indeed was a beautiful neck-and-neck finish, which showed great strategizing and skills by Benjamin.

This victory was the cherry on top for Rai Benjamin's Paris Olympics. He had earlier clinched his first Olympic gold in the men's 400-meter hurdles. What an achievement—a second gold for Benjamin. The 4x400 relay has been a sure thing for Team U.S. Unlike the 4x100 relay, which has its memorable misadventures with handoffs and exchanges, the 4x400 team has been predictably solid. This makes three straight Olympics with gold for the U.S. men's 4x400 relay. Quite a tradition of excellence.

While basking in this well-deserved glory, it is already focusing on new challenges. Their win in Paris testified that the U.S. men's 4x400-meter relay team is talented and full of team spirit. They want to continue to shine further on the global stage. Another heart-stopping win by the U.S. men's 4x400 relay team, from the clever last leg by Rai Benjamin to the astonishing promise of Quincy Wilson.
