The United States pocketed the women's 4x400m relay gold medal to achieve double victories over the distance at the World Athletics Championships on Sunday.

Shortly after their men's teammates won the gold, Talitha Diggs, Abby Steiner, Britton Wilson and Sydney McLaughlin combined for a world-leading three minutes and 17.79 seconds to win.

The U.S. team built its leading position from the second baton en route to victory.

Jamaica placed second in 3:20.74, and Britain finished third in 3:22.64.
