Keely Hodgkinson won the 800m to end her injury-hampered season on a high at New York’s all-female Athlos meeting. Britain’s Olympic champion outclassed the field in her signature event, finishing in 1min 56.53sec in only her sixth race this season after missing several months of competition due to injury earlier this year.
Her fellow Briton Georgia Hunter Bell, the world silver medallist, took second in 1:58.33 on Friday night before a thronging Icahn Stadium. St Vincent’s Shafiqua Maloney (1:58.57) was third.
