SA relay team in men's 4x100m final at Paris Olympics

Date: Aug 8, 2024

Akani Simbine delivered a storming anchor run to take South Africa's relay team from near the back of the field to a spot in the final of the men's 4x100m relay at the Paris Olympics.

With Benjamin Richardson out injured, the team had to reshuffle the order, taking starter Shaun Maswanganyi to the second leg on the back straight.

Schoolboy Bayanda Walaza started with Bradley Nkoana running the bend and 100m star Simbine in his usual anchor role, where he rocketed through the field to finish second in 37.94 sec to secure a spot in Friday's final.
