Diamond League Brussels: Molly Caudery ‘so ready’ for world title bid after pole vault second place

Also in Brussels, Britain’s Charlie Dobson was third in the men’s 400m in 44.81secs, behind Americans Jacory Patterson (44.05) and Vernon Norwood (44.62).

Like Caudery, British team-mate Laura Muir also spoke optimistically of her World Championship ambitions after placing fourth in the women’s 1500m.

After enduring an injury-disrupted start to her season, Olympic and world medallist Muir posted a significant season’s best of three minutes 57.63 seconds in a race won by American Nikki Hiltz in 3:55.94.

“I’m in a good spot. Considering it’s the first time I’ve ran in a race of that calibre for over a year, to come out and run [that time] is great,” said Muir, 32.

“With a little bit more training, I’m excited to see what I can do. I think there was another second or two in the legs today… and running that time you’re not too far away [from the medals].”

In the men’s 1500m, Britain’s 2022 world champion Jake Wightman was ninth in 3:32.95, one place ahead of Neil Gourley (3:33.21), as Dutchman Niels Laros won in 3:30.58.

Rising star Innes FitzGerald, 19, was 15th in 14:48.84 in a women’s 5,000m which featured Kenya’s Agnes Jebet Ngetich chasing the world record but ultimately fading to win in 14:24.99.
