23 Days To Go
The United States of America has set the world record for the 4x100m relay 17 times. They have won gold in the 4x100 meters fifteen times since 1920. America has also won a gold medal in the 100-meter sprint sixteen times since 1896, out of a total of twenty-six Olympic games.
Some of the athletes who have contributed to this dominant tradition of winning sprint medals are among the best the world has ever seen. Men like Jesse Owens, Carl Lewis, Michael Johnson, and Maurice Greene, to name a few.
