OL-billett i fare for Jake Wightman: Kampen for deltagelse i OL intensiveres

03/06/2024

Jake Wightman, the world champion in the 1500 meters from 2022, is facing tough competition to secure a spot on the British Olympic team.
Six runners are vying for three spots in the 1500 meters at the Olympics, with four competitors outperforming Wightman so far this season.
Wightman acknowledges that winning Olympic gold holds more significance than winning a World Championship.
He recognizes that this may be his last chance at the Olympics and is determined to do everything in his power to secure a spot.
While the 1500 meters is his main focus at the Olympics, Wightman hasn’t ruled out competing in the 800 meters as well.
The decision on which events to compete in has not been finalized.
Wightman’s performance at the upcoming European Championships will play a crucial role in determining his Olympic participation.
Following the European Championships, there are three Diamond League events before the Olympics begin in August.
