In the end, Barbados came away with the gold after running a massive 3:05.49, setting a new Championship Record and finishing like a team that knew exactly how to handle the biggest moment. But this race was far from easy. Because Jamaica was right there.

And then came the biggest shock of all… the Bahamas got disqualified. That changed everything.
