The United States set a new world record in the heats of the mixed 4x400m relay at the Paris Olympics on Friday. The quartet of Vernon Norwood, Shamier Little, Bryce Deadmon and Kaylyn Brown timed 3min 07.41sec, smashing the previous best of 3:08.80 set when the US won world gold in Budapest last year. "We wanted to come out here and execute good hand-offs," said Norwood. "We set the tone for the rest of the United States with that world record."
A fired-up Novak Djokovic on Friday reached his first Olympic final, where he will face Carlos Alcaraz in a dream showdown for gold, describing his achievement as "a big deal". Top seed Djokovic, still seeking an elusive Olympic title to sit along his 24 Grand Slams, defeated Italy's Lorenzo Musetti 6-4, 6-2 in a tense semi-final. Alcaraz earlier became the youngest men's finalist since tennis returned to the Games in 1988 when he swept aside Felix Auger-Aliassime 6-1, 6-1. Sunday's title match at Roland Garros will be the pair's seventh meeting and follows on the heels of Alcaraz's recent victory against Djokovic in the Wimbledon final. "It's a huge relief," said Djokovic, whose only success at the Olympics was a bronze medal at Beijing in 2008.
