Team Ghana was disqualified from the Men’s 4x100m relay event at the 2024 Olympic Games after a late baton changeover.

Rasheed Saminu, the first leg, got off to a good start, but he struggled with his changeover to the second leg, Benjamin Azamati, which affected the momentum of their race.
Azamati got his change to the third leg, Ibrahim Fuseini, right, but the final change to the anchor leg, Joseph Paul Amoah, was delayed yet again and happened outside the required zone. Therefore making their sixth place in Heat 2 with a time of 38.62s invalid.
