2024 Olympic Track & Field Schedule For Aug. 9: Finals On Finals On Finals

The entire late session of track and field Friday at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris will be event finals and medal dreams coming true at Stade de France.

The action will include finals of the women’s 4x100 relay, women’s shot put, men’s 4x100 relay, women’s 400, men’s triple jump, women’s 10,000m, men’s 400-meter hurdles and the last event of the women’s heptathlon, the 800.

The track and field competition began Aug. 1 and will end Aug. 11. The last event contested will be the women’s marathon, which will begin Sunday at 1 a.m. Eastern.

Looking ahead to the much-anticipated 4x100 relays, both Team USA squads will have the opportunity to add to their dominance in the discipline, though it will mean regaining their footing after a few off years.

Quincy Hall already snagged the gold medal for the United States in the men’s 400, and Alexis Holmes will have the chance to make it a sweep for Team USA after taking one of two automatic spots during her semifinal heat Wednesday (50.00).

Holmes finished behind the Dominican Republic’s Marileidy Paulino (49.21). Paulino was second among all qualifiers, while Holmes was seventh. Bahrain’s Salwa Eid Naser was the fastest in the semifinals at 49.08.

Shaunae Miller-Uibo of the Bahamas won the women’s 400 in 2016 and 2020, but she did not make the semifinals this year. Paulino was the silver medalist in 2020 Tokyo.

In the men’s 400-meter hurdles Friday, Team USA’s Rai Benjamin also will attempt to improve on the silver medal he won in Tokyo. He will, however, be running right next to defending Olympic champion Karsten Warholm, who won in Tokyo with an Olympic-record time of 45.94.

Here’s the schedule for Day 9 of the track and field competition at the 2024 Summer Olympics:
