On the closing day of the Tokyo World Athletics Championship, the United States won three of the four relay, but the men won 4×400 Botswana and two world championships were born.
The women’s 800 meters absolute favorite was Keely Hodgkinson, who could not save on the wind wings of others and win the distance. After 200 meters, the British fought a position struggle with the Kenyan moura and started with a very strong four hundred. Hodgkinson was finally able to overtake the over-mousse at 600. The early started hair then hit Hodgkinson, ran out at the last 50 meters, and Kenyai Lilian Odira, who came out of the last bend, stepped beside him almost easily, and then his compatriot Georgia Hunter Bell threw himself in front of him. Odia won with a World Cup peak. 1: 54,62 is six centuries better than Jarmila Kratochvilová’s 1983 result. The Czechoslovak runner also lives in 1983 in 1983, and at least as many attacks as the German Marita Koch’s 1985 world record.
At 5000 meters, the man was only waiting for a big race due to the excitement and crazy hair of the 10,000 meters, the latter champion, Jimmy Gressier, French, but also tried to repair the 1500 Olympic champion Cole Hocker, who was not ruled out. The champion of the number was not finalized at the Norwegian Jakob Ingebrigtsen 1500, returning from an injury to his speed, but 5,000 still had a better chance.
After the start, three Americans were at the forefront and dictated a moderately strong pace. Hocker then merged into the field, and Ingbrigtsen saved his strength at the end of the line at the end of the line. The second kilometer became even stronger than the first, Nico Young and Grant Fisher continued to control the race, but then the Ethiopian Hagos Gebrhiwet was also at the forefront. After the three strong kilometers, the pace slowed down a lot, when Ingbrigtsen went forward and did not really accelerate to the last 450 meters. That’s when the Belgian Isaac Kimeli and Ethiopian Binim Mehary launched. Ingebrigtsen disappeared completely, and Hocker was still back at 300 meters. The American fired the rockets by then and, when he turned to the finish line, he was already in a better position, no one with his sprint, grabbed Mehary, Gressier finally Kiteli and was purely his first place. Kimeli became silver and Gressier pocketed the bronze.

The men’s 4×400 meter favorite was Botswana, three of their runners reached the 400 finals, and their fourth man was Letsile Tebogo, who became an Olympic champion last year. Their challenger was the United States that made it to the final after some interlude. They could not have been there based on the pre -race, but the jury decided to organize a separate time for them and the Kenyans, as they believed them was hindered by the Zambian relay. Kenya and the United States ran a special race on Sunday morning, and the latter reached a time that was enough for the finals, which was held with nine teams. The Americans got a single course, which is not very beneficial, but due to a heavy rainfall, it was an even bigger disadvantage because the water was on it. Despite this, the United States started strongly, first switching, and quickly formed their separate battle with the Botswana. The third man, Ndori, wanted to decide the race soon, but his pre -bend attempt went bankrupt and then could barely hold on to the American. The last lap was dramatic, with the 400 individual champion Kebinathshspi behind the 400-barrier Rai Benjamin, and even the South African relay was threatened when he got somewhere and turned over 20 meters. The Americans finally took second place with a target photo before South Africa.
After that, the women’s 4×400 was excited, with the United States, the second best 400-time Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone, a big top and a World Cup peak in front of Jamaica and defending the Netherlands.
The women’s 4×100 meters ended with an American victory, but the race was much sharper. Jamaica was on the United States, and finally only four centuries. The first member of the Jamaican relay, Shelley-Ann Fraser-Pryce, ran the final race and said goodbye to athletics. The 38 -year -old Sprinter won a total of ten World Championship gold medals on the different distances and was a three -time Olympic champion. For Americans, Melissa Jefferson-Wooden logged in as a throne claim and closed this World Cup with three gold medals (100, 200, 4×100).

After Jamaica ruined the semi -finals and excluded, the men’s 4×100 meter favorite became the United States. The Americans took the relay smoothly throughout, with two hundred champions Noah Lyles already advantage and left no chance for the others, behind the Canadian relay, and the third were the Dutch.
