Rai Benjamin secured a gold medal in the men's 400m hurdles at the Paris Olympics, marking his first Olympic gold. Benjamin finished the race with a time of 46.46 seconds. This victory contributes to Team USA's track and field success, bringing their total to eleven gold medals in this year's Olympics. Karsten Warholm of Norway took the silver with a time of 47.04 seconds, while Alison dos Santos of Brazil claimed the bronze with a time of 47.25 seconds. This achievement is particularly significant for the U.S. men's team, who had not won any individual sprint golds in the Tokyo Olympics.
