Zimbabwean sprinter Makanakaishe Charamba continued his impressive rise on the international athletics stage after winning bronze in the men's 200m at the Wanda Diamond League Final in Brussels on Saturday evening.
Charamba clocked 19.99 seconds to secure third place in a highly competitive field.
American star Kenneth Bednarek won the race in a world-leading 19.62 seconds, while South Africa's Sinesipho Dambile took silver in 19.89 seconds.
Botswana Olympic champion Letsile Tebogo finished fourth in 20.01 seconds.
The bronze medal adds to Charamba's growing list of international achievements and further underlines his emergence as one of Zimbabwe's leading sprint prospects.
Charamba made history last year by reaching the Olympic 200m final, marking a significant milestone for Zimbabwean sprinting.
He has continued to build on that breakthrough this season, winning silver at the Hungarian Grand Prix in July.
His latest performance in Brussels provides another strong indication of his progress as he establishes himself among the world's leading 200m sprinters.
