2023 Men’s 800 World Rankings

Diamond League wins, including at the Final in Eugene, helped carry Emmanuel Wanyonyi to the top. (VICTOR SAILER/PHOTO RUN)

MARCO AROP SCORED a tight 0.29 victory over Emmanuel Wanyonyi at the WC, but the Kenyan sewed up No. 1 with an even tighter 0.05 margin in winning the DL Final. That made Wanyonyi 4-2 in their head-to-head meetings and that combined with his 3 other DL wins to none for Arop confirmed his superiority…

ALGERIA had a pair of Rankers for the second year in a row, Slimane Moula narrowly edging Djamel Sedjati for the No. 3 position. Despite Sedjati’s having a losing record to Moula, he had superior big-meet credentials…

2-TIME REIGNING No. 1 Emmanuel Korir had his season severely limited by a calf injury; he didn’t break 1:46 all year and didn’t make it out of the heats in Budapest…

U.S. leader Bryce Hoppel made it back into the Top 10 for the first time since ’19.
