Qatar sprinter Ammar Ismail Yahia Ibrahim made an impressive debut at the 2024 Olympic Games by achieving a personal best in the men’s 400m contest. The event took place at the iconic Stade de France in Paris on August 4.

Clocking in at 44.66 seconds, Ismail finished fourth in his heat, narrowly missing out on an automatic spot in the semi-finals, as only the top three athletes from each heat advance. Despite this, his performance stands out, as his time was the eighth fastest among all participants across eight heats held on Sunday.
