The former 200m national record holder finished 5th during heat 6 of the race on Wednesday and missed out on a place in the semifinal.
Joe Paul looked certain to finish in the first four of his heat but slowed down towards the finishing line.

The Ghanaian has however been taken to the hospital to have an X-ray done on his injured toe to know the extent of the injury.
Joe Paul is expected to be part of Ghana’s 4x100m relay team that will run on Friday, August 25.
