Kiprop led the chase pack until just before 800 meters, when he suddenly dropped back and allowed the entire 15-man field to pass him. Instead of dropping out, however, Kiprop hung back there for the next lap before rejoining the leaders with 300 meters to go and pulling away to win the race handily in the homestretch thanks to a 54.6-second last lap. It was a truly bizarre sight to behold; it was almost as if Kiprop was so confident in his fitness that he decided he needed to give himself an extra challenge.<\/p>\n<p>What made it incredible is that Kiprop seemingly toyed with a field that included Ayanleh Suleiman of Djibouti, a man who has challenged Kiprop and beaten him several times in the past year.<\/p>\n<h3>Video<\/h3>\n<h3><iframe

Kipruto looked set to take over as king of steeplechase from Ezekiel Kemboi. However Jairus Birech emerged from nowhere and thoroughly dominated this event in 2014. Kipruto has had to live in the shadow of Birech for the past year.\u00a0 Kipruto had not won a diamond league race since 2013.<\/p>\n<p>This Sunday however he battled gamely against Birech who had earlier withdrawn due to malaria only to make a comeback.<\/p>\n<p>With two laps to go Birech led but Kipruto and Koech were rclose. Hillary Yego, who had been trailing the top three by a few meters, joined them with 600 to go, setting the stage for an exciting final lap.<\/p>\n<p>In the last lap , Birech, Kipruto and Koech continued to battle. With 200m to go, it was down to Birech and Kipruto neck and neck. Birech&#8217;s superior hurdling technique putting him slightly ahead at the final barrier but Kipruto dug deep for his first Diamond League win since June 2013, running 8:09.47, while Birech had to settle for second in 8:09.81.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Kipsiele Koech who has been running at the top level for over a decade, proved he is still going strong by finishing 3rd.<\/p>\n<h2>Video<\/h2>\n<p><iframe

One person Rudisha has not beaten since he returned from injury is Nijel Amos. But he seems to be getting closer each time. This time he lost by only a tenth of a second. Rudisha normally takes off like a bullet and maintains the pace through two laps. This time he started slowly and built up speed as the race wore on.<\/p>\n<p>Boris Berian took an early lead. With 250m to go Rudisha and Amos led the following pack in reeling in Berian. With 100m to go, Amos and Rudisha were neck and neck. The Botswanan had to dig deep to beat Rudisha.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I am coming back nicely, and I know in the coming races, I will be there. I am really encouraged and motivated because I lost by very few meters.\u201d said Rudisha after the race.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table class=\"records-table event-results remove-oddrow
