Benjamin Azamati has expressed his delight after Ghana’s men’s 4x100m relay team secured qualification for a fourth consecutive World Athletics Championships.
Ghana finished second behind China in 38.09 seconds to book their place at next year’s championships in Beijing.
The quartet of Benjamin Azamati, Joseph Paul Amoah, Edwin Gadayi and Abdul Rasheed Saminu bounced back impressively after the disappointment of day one at the World Relays.
“We know how to do it now. Qualifying for a fourth straight time is a great feat. Now it’s about getting better individually, regrouping and getting faster as a team,” Azamati said after the race.
