United States smashed one of the oldest world records on Friday when they won the women’s Olympic 4x100m relay title in
40.82sec.

The quartet took more than half a second off the 27-year-old record of 41.37sec set by the former East Germany in 1985, beating arch-
rivals Jamaica (41.41sec) while Ukraine took bronze (42.04sec).

Nigeria’s quartet of Oludamola Osayomi, Gloria Asumnu, Endurance Abinuwa and Blessing
Okagbare failed to break into the first three, ending up fourth with a time of 42.64 ahead of the Germans.
