SAINT-DENIS, France - The U.S. men's 4x100 relay team faced yet another disappointment at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, as a botched handoff led to their disqualification from the race. Despite a strong start, a late exchange between Christian Coleman and Kenny Bednarek caused Team USA to finish in seventh place, missing out on a podium position.
This unfortunate outcome continued the relay team's struggles at the event, marked by previous disqualifications and failed baton exchanges. The absence of 100-meter gold medalist Noah Lyles, who tested positive for COVID-19, further hampered the team's chances of success.
While Team USA showed promise in the qualifying rounds with the fastest time, the hopes of breaking the medal curse in the 4x100 relay were dashed once again in Paris. The disappointment was palpable among the athletes, who expressed their regret at not being able to deliver a better performance for their country.
As the U.S. men's relay team looks ahead to future Olympics, they will need to address the recurring issues that have plagued their performances in the past. With determination and continued effort, Team USA aims to overcome their challenges and strive for success in upcoming competitions.
