The men's 4x100m relay, for sure. Each of the athlete's times were in the 10-second range, which is slower than the other top sprinters in the world. However, when you combine them together to make a team, they had the speed and skill to beat faster teams and win the silver medal. Their baton passes were amazing — it just goes to show how important research and practice is in sports.
