Canada stormed to a surprise victory in the men’s 400m relay final to take gold as Team GB secured bronze, and the USA missed out on a medal after more changeover drama.
The Canadian quartet of Aaron Brown, Jerome Blake, Brendon Rodney, and Andre De Grasse triumphed from lane 9 to finish in 37.50 seconds, ahead of South Africa who claimed silver.
Favourites to reign supreme, the USA could not have asked for a worse start. The opening handover between Kenny Bednarek and Christian Coleman was a disaster, with the former setting off too early.
