Description

The 2025 World Athletics Relays in Guangzhou will feature the debut of the Mixed 4x100 Metres Relay Final, adding a new layer of excitement to the global sprinting stage. The final, set for Sunday, 11 May, will take place at the Guangdong Olympic Stadium and is expected to deliver a highly competitive showdown among several elite national squads.

Canada enters the final as the fastest team from the heats, having clocked an impressive 40.90 seconds. Jamaica, always a powerhouse in sprint relays, closely followed with a time of 41.04 seconds and will be one of the favorites, particularly if they field experienced sprinters such as Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce or Yohan Blake. Italy and France also secured their spots with strong performances, finishing just behind the leaders and proving themselves capable of challenging for a medal.

The event takes on an unexpected dimension with the absence of the United States, who were eliminated in the heats after a failed baton exchange. Their early exit underscores the unpredictable and technical nature of relay racing, especially in the mixed format.

With a historic first title on the line, Sunday’s final promises drama, speed, and fierce national pride as teams chase glory in this innovative and fast-paced event.
