On day 4 of the IAAF World Championships Beijing 2015 the Jamaican men, Javon Francis, Rusheen McDonald and Peter Matthews were not in top form. After yesterday’s fast times in the 400m heat qualifiers, they did not have the legs, today, to take them to the front of the pack. Therefore, Jamaica will not be represented in the men’s 400m finals.

Javon Francis (JAM) 4th in Heat 3 of Men’s 400M IAAF World Championships Beijing 2015

Peter Matthews (JAM) 8th in Men’s 400M Semifinal at the IAAF World Championships Beijing 2015

Rusheen McDonald (JAM) finished 6th in his 400M semifinal at the IAAF World Championships Beijing 2015
