The USA, with two reserve runners, won their Heat in 38.15, and improved to 37.82 in the semi-finals. Cuba won the other Heat in 38.16. Jamaica and Brazil were both runners-up in the time of 38.27s. In the final the USA produced safe passes on the first two changeovers before Lewis drew away from the field to give Greene a two metres lead. The individual champion added another metre to finish with the sixth-fastest time ever of 37.61. Cuba held second place until the final leg where Claudinei da Silva gained two metres on Freddy Mayola to win the silver medal.
