Qatar's Hemeida Wins 400M Hurdles In Bellinzona


(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Qatar's Bassem Hemeida won the men's 400m hurdles at the Bellinzona Athletics Meeting in Switzerland on Sunday, delivering an impressive performance against a strong international field.

Hemeida clocked a season-best 47.56 seconds to secure victory and break the 48-second barrier for the first time this season. His latest performance also marked a significant improvement on his previous season-best of 48.17 seconds, recorded last week at the Lausanne Diamond League meeting in Switzerland.

The Bellinzona victory highlights Hemeida's steady progress as he continues his preparations for the upcoming Asian Games in Nagoya, Japan, next month. His participation in international competitions across the Diamond League, Gold and Silver categories forms part of the Qatar Athletics Federation's programme to provide national team athletes with high-level competition and valuable preparation ahead of the continental Games.

In addition to the 400m hurdles, Hemeida is also a member of Qatar's 4x400m relay team, making him an important part of the national squad as it builds towards the Asian Games.
