My goal for the final is of course to get the gold, but also to get that 46. That's what I really want."

400 meter runner Najee Glass (Woodbridge, N.J.) took a blazing lead in his qualifier, shooting out of the blocks and building ground on the backstretch. But it was Russian Nikita Uglov who eventually won the heat with a steady comeback in the final 100 meters, finishing in 47.43. Glass' time of 47.83 was good for second in his heat and sixth overall.
