2024 Men’s 800 World Rankings

Emmanuel Wanyonyi’s victory in Brussels, dispatching his prime rivals, capped a repeat season at No. 1. (JIRO MOCHIZUKI/AGENCE SHOT)

DAVID RUDISHA’S WORLD RECORD is a dozen years old now, but ’24 brought its severest threat yet, Emmanuel Wanyonyi missing by just 0.20 with his 1:41.11. He also ran 1:41.19, 1:41.58 & 1:41.70 to become the first ever to produce a quartet of 1:41s in the same year…

PARIS PODIUM MATES Djamel Sedjati and Marco Arop each claimed a win over Wanyonyi, but the Kenyan got suitable revenge over each of them. Splitting Sedjati and Arop wasn’t easy, but in the final analysis the Algerian’s 3–2 edge in DL wins was the decider…

TOPPED BY HIS AMERICAN RECORD, No. 4-rated Bryce Hoppel had no fewer than 6 sub-1:44s. This is his third appearance in the Rankings, following No. 9s in ’19 & ’23.
