Commonwealth Games: Saminu and Azamati miss out on podium finish in 100m
Ghanaian sprinters Benjamin Azamati and Abdul-Rasheed Saminu could not secure a spot on the podium following underwhelming performances in the men’s 100m at the 2026 Commonwealth Games.
Azamati finished seventh in the men’s 100m final, clocking 10.11 seconds to conclude an impressive sprint campaign, being the only Ghanaian to reach that stage.
Cameroon’s Emmanuel Eseme claimed the gold medal in dominant fashion, setting a Games Record (GR) and National Record (NR) of 9.83 seconds. Australia’s Lachlan Kennedy won silver with an Area Record (AR) and Personal Best (PB) of 9.85 seconds, while Nigeria’s Kayinsola Ajayi took bronze in 9.90 seconds.
