With a dramatic comeback over the final 100 meters Team USA’s Quincy Hall ran down the field to win gold in the men's 400m, clocking a time 43.40. Matthew Hudson-Smith of Great Britain earned silver with 43.44, and Muzala Samukonga of Zambia earned bronze with 43.74.

Hall’s sprint is the fourth-fastest all-time in the event and the third fastest by an American.

He became the first American to win the 400-meter Olympic gold since LaShawn Merritt at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. His win reestablishes Team USA dominance in the event as Americans won gold in the men’s 400-meters in every Olympics from 1984-2008.
