The 18th World Athletics Championships gets underway in Eugene, Oregon, USA on Friday next week. Kenyan sports fans will be up for an epic show. Majority will be glued to television sets, mobile phones and newspapers to follow the action, where our gallant star will be competing.
We expect the team to surpass the 2015 World Championships in Beijing, China, where we won 16 medals – seven gold, six silver and three bronze – to take pole position. The Beijing outing stands out as the most successful World Championships for Kenya ever.
