World Athletics U20 Championships 2022 day 6

The 19th edition of the World Athletics U20 Championships 2022 ends on Saturday, August 6. The junior championship event at the Pascual Guerrero Olympic Stadium in Santiago de Cali, Colombia, began on August 1. As the championship enters its final day, the medal table seems tight with the United States and Jamaica competing for the top spot.

Day 5 of the World Athletics U20 Championships Cali 2022 suffered an hour-long delay due to a torrential downpour. However, the highlight of the day was the Jamaican runners. The nation’s women’s 4x100m relay team won gold with a new U20 record. The Jamaican sprint quartet shattered the previous world U20 4x100m record, finishing in 42.59 seconds.

The Jamaican men’s 4x100m relay team settled for silver, while Jamaica’s Brianna Lyston powered to gold in the women’s 200m sprint.
