Roundup: De Grasse Wins Silver – Warner bronze on Track at Rio Olympics
RIO DE JANEIRO — Andre De Grasse kept adding to his and Canada’s medal totals on Day 13 of the Rio Olympics.
The sprint star from Markham, Ont., won the silver medal in the men’s 200-metre final on Thursday night for the second medal of his Olympic debut.
The 21-year-old De Grasse finished the race in 20.02 seconds, just behind Jamaica’s Usain Bolt, who took gold for the third consecutive Olympics in 19.78. France’s Christophe Lemaitre was third in 20.12 seconds.
De Grasse became the first Canadian to win two individual track medals in the same Olympics since 1932.
