\n\tAsian Games double gold medalist Femi Ogunode became the fastest man at the Arab Games when he clocked 10.37 seconds to win the 100m final on Friday.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n\tOgunode prevailed in a photo finish with Oman\u2019s Barakat al-Harthi (10.37sec), while Morocco\u2019s Aziz Ouhadi claimed bronze in a time of 10.38seconds.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t“I\u2019m extremely pleased with the result. I didn\u2019t expect the contest to be so close though,” said an elated Ogunode after the race.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\tDespite missing out on the title by a whisker, al-Harthi was pleased with his showing.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t“I am very happy. I thank God for this result. I am so proud because this is the first medal in athletics for Oman. The distance between us was a hair\u2019s width,” added al-Harthi.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\tLater in the evening Qatar\u2019s Kamal Abubaker Ali went on to clinch gold in the men\u2019s 3000m steeplechase virtually unchallenged clocking 8:36.82. The win was all the more pleasing for the Qatari as he was out of action for most part of last season due to injury and this season too was a forgettable one.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t“That win was like a consolation for me, after two seasons of frustration. Last year I was injured and this season I couldn\u2019t register a good time.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t“I really wanted to win this race that\u2019s why I went to Kenya and trained hard there for 43 days,” said an overjoyed Abubaker.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
