Joe Paul, he is affectionately called, qualified for the final after winning Heat 1 of Saturday's semifinal with a time of 20.79s.
However, he fell short of expectations, finishing with a time of 20.83 seconds in Sunday's final.
Paul Amoah inability to win the race ends Ghana's hopes of picking up gold medal in the sprints.
