South Africa delivered, Jamaican failed, and Spain stunned all of us
This weekend was all about the world’s relays in Guangzhou. World Athletes have used it as an event to select the top 14 championships of each of the decade, the other two slots opens with the teams, or make it qualified.
Here we do not sever china’s chief speech points.
The South African relay team was shown to the party
The 4×100 m team of South Africa handed over one of the most compiled and electric performances of the match, the world’s relays in Guangzhou by 37.61 in the world. The team consisted of Bayanda Valasa, Synesipo’s dram, Bradley from Simbina. They pursued their help cleanly and stored under pressure, noting the United States for only 0.05 seconds. Valazan, only 19 years old, kept his own against more experienced snacks. Dragger and Kotoana kept the momentum with smooth transitions, but it was like who stole the moment once again.
Mine Simins took the wood in time, South Africa was just one step. But if there is something that is mastered by a Simbie, it reads a race under pressure. “I feed on the pursuit,” he said. And chased him. When he was resting, he was rewarded in the stretching of an American anchor, waited at the right time, then leaned into the end with someone’s confidence.
The watch reads 37.61, a world lead and presentation that is just shy about their African post. The third came to Canada loaded with their Olympic detachment.
Men’s 4×400 m reline also came to the party, but with a small unfinished business. The 4x400M final of last year is on the Bamhamyan Island, where Botswana left them, has still been extended. Clock 2: 57.50, they not only secured the victory in Guangzhou, but also crumbled their national record, improving the time in the Tokyo Olympics. Coming to less than half an hour from the victory of 4×100 m, the result showed the growing force of the earth in both sprint and long-lasting relay events.
Undoubtedly, this double victory signs the shift for South Africa, a team is traditionally strong in separate Sprinting, which now proves that it can consistently transfer the relay. The depth and consistency of the two events assume a well-rounded program that matures at the right time, especially in Tokyo on the horizon.
What happened to Ama Amaya?
Tim Jamaica arrived in Guangzhou with great expectations, but left mixed emotions and more questions than answers. For a country, which has long been synonymous with Sprint’s dominance, providing only two qualifying points of the Tokyo 2025 World Cup, which he felt like a world championship. Although there were moments of promise, in particular women in 4×100 m and mixed 4×100 m, the team continued to search for rhythm and reliability.
The women’s 4x100M team anchored by Cherica Jackson and represents the legends, such as the Shelly-Anne Fraser-Price and climbing the star Tina Clayton, can provide bronze in 42.33. It was a dear result, but shortened from the usual Jamaican standard. In mixed 4×100 m, Cole, Slole, Thomas and Level’s quartet were shocking to take silver behind Canada. The event will not be challenged in Tokyo, which limited the long-term value of that presentation.
Real anxiety was on the men’s side, particularly in 4×100 m. Two days, two failed Baton exchange and zero progress toward qualifying. For a nation that once had to look fragile, following Julian the castle twice, and Johanie Blake, which failed that never came. Even their 4x400m squad had to climb in Retcheace to earn a place in Tokyo. Guangzhou did not erase Jamaican heritage, but it emphasized how fragile dominance becomes without performance.
Spain shocked the world
Spain’s out can get off the most amazing one in the gunzhou world’s relay and impressive performances of the whole meeting. A people who are traditionally known for its sovereignty in the Sprinian relatives, left two silver medals and rewriting their own history in the process. For the team, for decades for decades, women were not even qualified even as a turning point.
The biggest shock came to women’s 4x400m, where Spain failed the United States. 24.13 to win the title. It was a performance built on faith and rhythm, not starry. Paula Sevilla gave the team to the team, and before that Blanca Hervas immediately planted the anchor of the house directly, the stadium also felt like that. Hervas has already launched Mixed Relay, but he found another outfit when it was most likely important.
The women’s 4x100M team added magic. After setting a national record in the statements, they duplicated in the finals with another fragile run, in the second place in the United Kingdom and United States. The foundation of Cladera, Bestue, Perez and “Sevilla” team also ran in 4x400M. That kind of versatility and gravel are rare, and it gave Spain the weekend, they will talk for years. Sprint relay conversation for a long neglected country Guangzhou was more than a fragment. It felt like a beginning.
