The Belgian Tornados also progress smoothly to the final with the fourth best time in total, 3:01.96. Among their competitors, the Americans had the fastest legs that gave them a top time, exactly three seconds behind the Belgians. Coach Jacques Borlée let the Roeselare sprinter Alexander Doom rest after he was unable to secure a place in the final in the individual 400 meters. It is possible that the West Fleming will appear in the relay final on Sunday night. Julien Watrin, Dylan Borlée, Jonathan Sacoor and closing runner Kevin Borlée finished the job in the semi-finals. At 4.35 am Belgian time, Belgium will defend its bronze medal from the previous World Cup in Doha.
