However, it was unfortunate for his colleague James Dadzie, who placed fourth in the men’s 200m semi-final (Heat 1), clocking 20.52 seconds to end his medal hopes.

Mustapha Bokpin finished seventh in the men’s 200m semi-final (Heat 3), recording 20.65 seconds, thereby missing out on qualification.

In the women’s 100m hurdles final, Evonne Britton finished seventh with a time of 13.10 seconds, while Nigeria’s Tobi Amusan claimed bronze in 12.60 seconds.

After qualifying for the final, Britton had expressed confidence ahead of the race.

“We are going to the final. I’m going to meet Tobi Amusan again. It’s nothing new,” she said.

So far, Zinabu Issah remains Ghana’s only medallist, having won a silver, as the Games head toward conclusion on August 2, 2026.
