Why was Team USA allowed to do a solo re run on the women’s 4x100 relay heat
Team USA's 4x100 meter relay team was allowed to do a solo re-run on the women's 4x100 relay heat due to a technical error during the race. One of the runners, Jenna Prandini, tripped and fell during the first leg of the race, and as a result, she handed the baton off to teammate Tianna Bartoletta well behind the pack. The error was deemed beyond Team USA's control based on the TV replay, so they were given the opportunity to re-run the race without the other teams. Team USA ended up winning the re-run and qualifying for the final.
