@ATHLETICSWEEKLY


was won by Timothy Cheruiyot in a


world outdoor lead of 3:50.49 from


Ayanleh Souleiman (3:51.22), Filip


(3:51.28) and Jakob Ingebrigtsen


(3:51.30). Behind, Olympic champion


Matt Centrowitz was fifth, world


indoor record-holder Samuel Tefera


eighth after clashing with Jakob


Ingebrigtsen on the final bend and


Yomif Kejelcha an under par 13th.


World record-holder Beatrice


Chepkoech front-ran to a 3000m


steeplechase victory in a world lead


of 8:55.58 and there was drama


behind as world champion Emma


Coburn fell on a barrier entering


the back straight mid-race before


getting up to finish a fine second in
9:04.90.
Caster Semenya returned to
racing with a commanding win
in the women’s 800m in a meet
record 1:55.70 ahead of Ajee Wilson.
The South African has been barred
from racing distances from 400m
to the mile for most of this season
due to IAAF rules relating to gender
and testosterone levels but she
is currently free to compete after
a court ruling and she made the
most of the opportunity at Stanford
with a fast time.
Another high-quality performance
came from Rai Benjamin in the

400m hurdles as he won in style
in a world lead of 47.16, well clear
of runner-up Kyron McMaster’s
48.94. The American was always in
control as he fell just outside his
PB of 47.02 and his time hinted at a
potential sub-47 clocking to come.
In the men’s pole vault, Mondo
Duplantis beat Sam Kendricks in
an entertaining competition with a
best of 5.93m. Duplantis represents
Sweden but studies in the United
States so felt very much at home as
he faced American Kendricks in a
competitive clash.
Marie-Josee Talou won the
women’s 100m in 11.02 (0.3)

as a strong field failed to put
up a challenge in a strange,
anticlimactic race. This was
epitomised by Shelly-Ann
Fraser-Pryce – the Jamaican
sprints legend finishing way down
in eighth in 11.39.
Elsewhere, Mariya Lasitskene
of Russia was in imperious high
jump form again with a 2.04m win,
Orlando Ortega took the men’s
110m hurdles in 13.24 (0.3), Lijiao
Gong of China won the women’s
shot put with 19.79m and American
Mike Norman was the only man to
break 45 seconds in the 400m as
he clocked 44.62.
