In a busy 1,500m Diamond League ultimate in Brussels on Friday, Jakob Ingebrigtsen of Norway quashed any ultimate doubts. The 23-year-old clocked 3:30.37 in a tactical match to get vengeance on Olympic champion Cole Hocker and bronze medallist Yared Nuguse–the American duo who stored him off the rostrum in Paris. The win marks his 3rd consecutive Diamond League trophy within the males’s 1,500m match.
The messy race noticed pacer Boaz Kiprugut step off 1,000m in–proper into the second one lane, the place Ingebrigtsen was once making his transfer to take the lead. The Norwegian and Kenya’s Timothy Cheruiyot have been each bogged down by means of the pacer, which ended in a near-collision involving Nuguse, who was once overtaken by means of Cheruiyot and Hocker.
In a photograph end, Cheruiyot took 2nd over the Olympic champion in 3:30.93 with the American shut at the back of in 3:30.94.
In Thursday’s press convention forward of the general, Ingebrigtsen had mentioned “There’s at all times the risk of an international file, however most likely now not the next day.” As predicted, his time was once nowhere close to Hicham El Guerrouj’s 1,500m international file of three:26.00. Lovers should wait till the 2025 season to be again on international file watch–except he finally ends up making an look on the Copenhagen Part-Marathon on Sunday.
