Rudisha has predicted Africa's success in the 2024 Paris Olympics, emphasizing the strong performance of the younger generation in middle-distance running.
The race featured a host of fast times, including the winning mark of 3:43.73 by Jakob Ingebrigtsen, just 0.6 of a second off the senior world record.
Meanwhile, Ryan Crouser’s shot put world record has also been ratified owing to his dominant exploits at the USATF Los Angeles Grand Prix, the season’s sixth World Athletics Continental Tour Gold meeting, on May 27.
