Ghana’s quest for a medal in the men’s 100-meter race at Paris 2024 concluded as Benjamin Azamati and Rasheed Saminu did not advance to the finals. Azamati finished ninth in his heat with a time of 10.17 seconds, while Saminu clocked 10.05 seconds to secure seventh place, edging out Ferdinand Omanyala, who placed eighth with a time of 10.08 seconds. The competition rules stipulated that only the top two finishers from each heat would advance to the finals, along with the fastest remaining sprinters across all heats for the last two non-automatic qualification spots. With their elimination, Ghana’s hopes now rest on the 4×100 meter relay team, which will be their final opportunity to secure a medal in the sprint events at the Paris Olympics.
