The World Athletics Championships in Tokyo did not fail to entertain with exciting competitions and very fast races. Not helped by injuries and mishaps, GB& NI failed to win gold, but there were some stunning medal-winning performances, all of which make our shortlist for Memorable Moment.
Jake Wightman completed a comeback from a series of injuries since his gold in Eugene to take silver in a highly competitive 1500m in a time of 3:34.12 narrowly beaten for gold. Amy Hunt shook up the 200m with a stunning run down the home straight to grab silver in 22.14s, fulfilling the promise of her junior performances.
After a difficult year, Katarina Johnson-Thompson dramatically claimed a share of bronze in the heptathlon finishing level with Taliyah Brook on 6581 points. Georgia Hunter-Bell and Keely Hodgkinson were pipped on the line by Kenya’s Odira who broke the Championship 800m record. Georgia ran a PB of 1:54.90 to take silver, and Keely after an injury-hit season took bronze in 1:54.91 well ahead of the rest of the field.
