Rudisha

This is a good move and as athletes we should continue raising the flag high in various events across the world," said Rudisha.

David Rudisha has targeted a return to competition next year as the 800 metres world record holder attempts to bounce back from injury to earn a third Olympic title at Tokyo 2020.

The joint-third fastest man of all-time, Amos burst onto the scene when winning finishing second to David Rudisha’s world record at the 2012 Olympic Games in London.

Also on the list are Kenyan trio of Vivian Cheruiyot, David Rudisha and Ezekiel Kemboi.

The absence of David Rudisha in the men’s 800m and the failure by top-ranked Ferguson Rotich to finish the race means Kenya will have a fresh line-up of athletes at the Gold Coast.
