Joseph Paul Amoah made an emphatic start to his Commonwealth Games campaign, winning Heat 1 of the men's 200m in 20.36sec.
Amoah crossed the line first in a tightly contested race, edging Jamaica's Christopher Taylor, who was also credited with 20.36sec, to secure the heat victory and advance to the next round.
The composed performance reinforces Amoah's status as one of Ghana's leading sprint prospects as he continues his quest for a place on the podium in Glasgow.
