Andre De Grasse is keeping his head high despite leaving this year’s World Athletics Championships without any hardware.
De Grasse, who had reached the podium at every Olympics and world championships he competed in heading into Budapest, finished with a time of 20.14 seconds. Noah Lyles of the United States was first in 19.52 seconds, followed by fellow American Erriyon Knighton and Letslie Tebogo of Botswana . The top three teams from the two heats and the next two fastest teams qualified for Saturday’s final.
Things are looking more promising in decathlon, where 2022 world silver medalist Pierce LePage and reigning Olympic champion Damian Warner were second and third, respectively, after the first five events.
