She recovered from a slightly slower start to put on a pristine performance over the barriers, .17 seconds clear of silver medallist Britany Anderson of Jamaica."I believe in my abilities but I was not expecting a world record at these championships. You know, the goal is always just to execute well and get the win. So the world record is a bonus."
The 22-year-old then set his sights on his own record of 6.20m set at the World Indoor Championships in Belgrade earlier this year and improved upon it by 1cm with his second attempt. Ingebrigtsen came home in 13 minutes, 09.24 seconds ahead of Jacob Krop of Kenya, while Uganda's Oscar Chelimo found a home-straight burst to take bronze after American Grant Fisher had looked set for a medal until being tripped with 90m to go.The race had been one of the most eagerly-anticipated of the whole championships as it featured three current Olympic champions.
Aware of how he had been outkicked on the final bend in the 1,500m, the Norwegian hit the front three laps out and cranked up the pace as the field strung out behind him. Talitha Diggs got the Americans off to a solid start and Abby Steiner kept ahead of Jamaican Janieve Russell in the second leg a day after helping the United States win gold in the sprint relay.
The women’s relay was featured as the final track event instead of the men’s race for the first time in Eugene, where the United States finished top of the medal table with 13 golds and a world championships record 33 total medals. Mu took up the running with 300m to go but Hodgkinson, also second behind her in the Tokyo Olympics, went with her and when the American drifted slightly wide coming into the home straight, the Briton, also 20, squeezed into the gap and looked set to go past.

The race should be cancelled albeit. Was the wind condition not a consideration for the race to commence in the first instance? Gibberish.
Shit!! Even the wind hates us
Wtf?
The wind was focusing on our African lady only, others no wind.
🤣🤣 seeing a black person being prosperous makes them squam 🤣🤣
As long things done ✔️ by African people, western will come out with something to discredit.
The wind speed exceeded the legal limit, it's tough being a black person, if you beat them, they blame the wind.
How does wind speed get to be regulated with 'legalities'? The powers that be should just honour her record
Well done. xxx
