The following day, the Australian mixed 4×100m quartet—Uwezo Lubenda, Maya Taber, Kelechi Ekwomadu, and Thewbelle Philp—ran 41.64 seconds in the heats, briefly setting a world U20 record before Great Britain lowered the mark to 41.60 seconds. Other heats featured the United States at 41.82 seconds, Italy at 41.74 seconds, and Nigeria breaking its national and African U20 records with a 41.91-second run anchored by Miracle Ezechukwu’s 10.05-second split.
