45''94 !!
Karsten Warholm becomes the first man to go under 46 seconds over the 400m hurdles.
Prodigious.
The Norwegian was the favorite and he responded.
Already the world record holder (46''70) before arriving in Tokyo, Warholm lowered this mark by 76 hundredths ... Monstrous.
Behind, the American Rai Benjamin, long at the level of the Norwegian, takes the silver medal with an incredible time (46''17), a new United States record, and the Brazilian Alison Dos Santos wins the medal of bronze (46''72).
