U.S. Women Win 4x400m Relay, Allyson Felix Wins Ninth Olympic Medal
The U.S. women won the 4x400m relay in 3:19.06 over Jamaica (3:20.34) and Great Britain (3:25.88). The U.S. women have now won the 4x400m relay in every Olympic Games since 1996.



The squad of Courtney Okolo (50.31), Natasha Hastings (49.30), Phyllis Francis (49.85) and Allyson Felix (49.62) were challenged by the Jamaican team but ultimately held them off to win their sixth-consecutive Olympic gold medal in the event.

Felix now has nine Olympic medals, six of them gold. She is the most successful track and field athlete in Olympic history, tied with Jamaican Merlene Ottey for nine total medals.

Ottey has six silvers and three bronzes from 1980-2000.
