Andre De Grasse of Canada won the gold medal in 200m at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, leaving behind two American racers, Kenny Bednarek and Noah Lyles, who won silver and bronze medals, respectively.
De Grasse won the race in 200m with the time of 19,62 seconds, which had his best personal time.
It was an excellent race by the Canadian, who had never won a world or Olympic title before, although he is one of the world's best performers for years now.
He had won the silver medal in 200m in Rio 2016 and the bronze 100m in Rio and Tokyo.
Lyles, the world champion, was the favourite to win the race in 200 meters but had to comply with third place.
