They can also witness all three medalists in action on Day 8 (July 22, 2022) in the 4x100 Metres race category. In an interview with World Athletics, the sprinter stated:“I haven’t switched from the 400m, I’m still training for it, but I think I can do more damage in the 100m and 200m. I said to my coach and agent, ‘I think my best move right now would be the 100m and 200m’. Right now I’m just focusing on getting my speed up so I can make history”
