With 400 metres to go in the 1500m final race in Tokyo Olympics, Kenyan sensation Faith Kipyegon was behind the Dutch runner Sifan Hassan, who has been in blistering form this season. Hanging on to their vests was Great Britain’s Laura Muir. It looked like a script lifted straight from the finals of the 2017 IAAF World Championships with the three leading cast members in the same order heading to the finish line.
