After finishing second behind Wycliffe Kinyamal in his last Diamond League race, Rotich finally recorded his first diamond league win of 2018. And he did it by coming from dead last with 300m to go, to win at the finish line.<\/p>\n<p>Compatriot Jonathan Kitilit appeared to be running away with race, opening up a wide lead with 200m to go. But Rotich made his surge and passed every single person in the race to win in 1:43.73, the third fastest time of the season.<\/p>\n<p>Even without Rudisha, Kenyans have thoroughly dominated the 800m in 2018: Michael Saruni, Jonathan Kitilit, Wycliffe Kinyamal and Alfred Kipketer own the nine fastest times of 2018.<\/p>\n<h3>Results<\/h3>\n<table class=\"records-table clickable\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th width=\"8%\">POS<\/th>\n<th width=\"40%\">ATHLETE<\/th>\n<th width=\"10%\">COUNTRY<\/th>\n<th width=\"10%\">MARK<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>Ferguson Cheruiyot <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Rotich<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0KEN<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">1:43.73<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<td>Jonathan <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Kitilit<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0KEN<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">1:43.83<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>Sa\u00fal <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Ord\u00f3\u00f1ez<\/span><\/td>\n<td>ESP<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">1:44.36<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>Isaiah <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Harris<\/span><\/td>\n<td>USA<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">1:44.42<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>Alfred <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Kipketer<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0KEN<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">1:44.62<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<td>Joseph <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Deng<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0AUS<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">1:44.67<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>7<\/td>\n<td>Pierre-Ambroise <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Bosse<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0FRA<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">1:45.19<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>8<\/td>\n<td>Erik <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Sowinski<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0USA<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">1:45.34<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9<\/td>\n<td>Thiago <span class=\"name-uppercase\">do Ros\u00e1rio Andr\u00e9<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0BRA<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">1:45.59<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10<\/td>\n<td>Peter <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Bol<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0AUS<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">1:45.82<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>11<\/td>\n<td>Marc <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Reuther<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0GER<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">1:46.06<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td>Jackson Mumbwa <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Kivuva<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0KEN<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">DNF<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Race Video<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/k87J1Er1TqA\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Cheruiyot still invincible<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone \" src=\"http:\/\/kenyapage.net\/athletics\/images\/cheruiyot-paris-18.jpg\" width=\"511\" height=\"524\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Not only has Timothy Cheruiyot won every single race that he has tried this season.

When the pacemakers peeled off, Cheruiyot shifted to fifth gear and shook off the rest of the field, leaving a huge gap between himself and second placed Souleiman. He won in 3:29.71, a world leading time and very close to his personal best of 3:29.10, set in 2017.<\/p>\n<h3>Results<\/h3>\n<table class=\"records-table clickable\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th width=\"8%\">POS<\/th>\n<th width=\"40%\">ATHLETE<\/th>\n<th width=\"10%\">COUNTRY<\/th>\n<th width=\"10%\">MARK<\/th>\n<th width=\"7%\">Points<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>Timothy <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Cheruiyot<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0KEN<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">3:29.71<\/td>\n<td>8<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<td>Ayanleh <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Souleiman<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0DJI<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">3:31.77<\/td>\n<td>7<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>Charles Cheboi <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Simotwo<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0KEN<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">3:32.61<\/td>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>Aman <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Wote<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0ETH<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">3:32.81<\/td>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>Jakub <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Holu\u0161a<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\u00a0CZE<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">3:32.85<\/td>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<td>Filip <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Ingebrigtsen<\/span><\/td>\n<td>NOR<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">3:32.87<\/td>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>7<\/td>\n<td>Bethwell <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Birgen<\/span><\/td>\n<td>KEN<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">3:34.27<\/td>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>8<\/td>\n<td>Sadik <span class=\"name-uppercase\">Mikhou<\/span><\/td>\n<td>BRN<\/td>\n<td class=\"resultmark\">3:34.55<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Race Video<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Q7u9gpCdcBs\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Beatrice Chepkoech with a world leading time<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone \" src=\"http:\/\/kenyapage.net\/athletics\/images\/chepkoech-paris-18.jpg\" width=\"482\" height=\"478\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It was a brilliant and commanding run by Beatrice Chepkoech to win the women&#8217;s 3000m steeplechase with a world leading time of 8:59.36.
