World Athletics U20 Championships 2022: Day 2 Results

The highlight of Day 2 of the 2022 World Athletics U20 Championships was the 19-year-old Letsile Tebago from Botswana, who won the U20 100m final, clocking 9.91s. He broke his own junior record of 9.94s that he had set in the heats of the senior world championships last month. His exploits on the track have prompted many to draw comparisons with former Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt.

Meanwhile, Erwan Konate successfully defended his title in the men's long jump with a leap of 8.08m, which came in the fifth round. Mine de Klerk of South Africa retained her world U20 title in the women’s shot put. Her third-round effort of 17.17m helped her emerge victorious ahead of Turkey’s Pinar Akyol (16.84m).

The men's shot put witnessed intense competition with USA's Tarik O'Hagan eventually taking gold courtesy of a personal best throw of 20.73m.

Later, another thrilling finale was seen in the 4x400m mixed relay where the USA and India fought for gold. The former went on to break its own championship record, clocking 3:17.69 ahead of India’s 3:17.76.
