About This Event
The 200m demands the same explosive power as the 100m but adds technical complexity around the curve. Asian athletes have pushed the continental record close to the global elite in recent years.
Format
Competitors run in a staggered start arrangement to account for the curve. Heats and semifinals select the eight finalists for the gold medal race held on the evening of September 27.
Nations to Watch
China, Japan, Bahrain, Qatar, and India have consistently dominated Asian athletics. Kenyan-born naturalized athletes competing for Gulf nations remain a feature of middle- and long-distance events, while China leads in jumps and throws. Japan is particularly strong in sprints and marathon.
