Glasgow 2026: Ghana eyes sprint medal as Hayford Addai targets podium finish in T47 100m final
Hayford Addai will compete in the Men's 100m T47 Final at the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games, with Ghana hoping for a sprint medal. Addai captured gold at the 2026 Dubai World Para Athletics Grand Prix, where he clocked a personal best of 11.09 seconds. This performance places him sixth on the entry list, 0.05 seconds behind Nigeria's Ifeanyi Christian (11.04).
India's Mohammed Basil Morssinganakath (10.63) and Dilip Mahadu Gavit (10.64) are the top two seeds. England's Kevin Santos (10.76) and Australia's Jaydon Page (10.87) are also expected to challenge for podium finishes. Analysts expect gold to be decided in approximately 10.70-10.90 seconds, silver in 10.90-11.00 seconds, and bronze in 11.00-11.20 seconds. A performance close to 11.00 seconds would keep the Ghanaian in the fight for a podium finish.
