The women's 4 × 400 metres relay at the 2024 World Athletics Indoor Championships took place on 3 March 2024.

Summary[edit]

The Netherlands started off the relay final with 400 m silver medalist Lieke Klaver, who gave them the early lead over Jamaica and Great Britain. The second Dutch runner, Cathelijn Peeters, kept the lead during her leg. During the subsequent hand-off, the United States passed Great Britain and moved into third place. American Bailey Lear quickly passed Jamaican Charokee Young, and then Young pulled up lame, taking Jamaica out of the race. The third Dutch runner, Lisanne de Witte, passed the baton to anchor Femke Bol, the 400 m gold medalist. The Americans countered with 400 m bronze medalist Alexis Holmes. Bol stayed in front, with Holmes close behind and Great Britain's Jessie Knight in third. Entering the final straightaway, Holmes moved up to Bol's shoulder, but Bol pulled away at the end to give the Netherlands the gold medal.
