[medliberty]

More terrible announcing, as usual.

[oshawarunnerxc25]

lol totally unexpected for the reigning world champion to win :P

[larryboy1995]

Totally unexpected for Yego to win? The commentators should have done just a little digging and noticed that he was world champion the previous year in Osaka, and that he always makes his move over the last few meters...

Youssef Saad Kamel of Bahrain was born Gregory Konchellah in Kenya. His father, Billy Konchellah was a two time world champion in 800m in 1987 (Rome), 1991 (Tokyo) and bronze medalist in 1993 (Stuttgart). He was also fourth in the only Olympics (1984) he has participated in.

[soccersprint]
