2023 Men’s 1500 World Rankings

Josh Kerr got past Jakob Ingebrigtsen in the Budapest final but no other miler could do so all season. (KEVIN MORRIS)

FOR THE SECOND YEAR IN A ROW Jakob Ingebrigtsen lost the year’s biggest race to a Briton, but was nonetheless an easy choice for No. 1, again winning all his other races… In winning for the third time in a row (after a No. 2 in ’19), the Norwegian star was the year’s only 5-DL winner…

NUGUSE vs. KERR for the runner-up spot wasn’t easy, what with the American having only a 5th for his WC credential to put up against Kerr’s gold. Nuguse won both their other meetings, however, and had a pair of DL wins and a pair of runner-up finishes (including the Final) on his tally sheet…

THE U.S. HAS a pair of Rankers for the first time since ’12 (Matthew Centrowitz & Leo Manzano). To find the last American trifecta you need to go all the way back to ’86 (Steve Scott, Sydney Maree & Jim Spivey).
