Benjamin Azamati and Sean Sarfo-Antwi are back in the trends.
This was after the duo's electric performances during the 100m heat at the ongoing Commonwealth Games in Birmingham.
First was Ghanaian 100m record holder, Azamati, who won Heat 7 of the men’s race despite a shaky start to the event.
Soft work for @benjaminazamati 🇬🇭

🇬🇭 Benjamin Azamati starts poorly, but cruises past the field in the 100m heats to win. Even eased at the end. Too easy.
Wins it in 10.19s. #JoySports pic.twitter.com/M8kNQdil2h— Gary Al-Smith (@garyalsmith) August 2, 2022
