SAINT-DENIS, France—Rai Benjamin held off Letsile Tebogo on the anchor leg to give the United States a gold medal and an Olympic-record time in the men’s 4x400-meter relay at the Paris Games on Saturday night.
“I calculated that run very well to a T,“ Benjamin said. ”I have a really good, high ‘track IQ’ on people and how they run and how to do a quick time, so I didn’t have to get out too hard: Let’s just save it up to come home.'”
