Ajee Wilson Out of World Championships




The No. 1 ranked woman over 800m during 2014 will not toe the starting line in Beijing at the world championships.

Ajee Wilson, who finished second at the U.S. Championships in June, has withdrawn from the event citing injury.


Wilson has the third-fastest time in the world in 2015 from her 1:57.87 at May’s Prefontaine Classic.

Molly Ludlow, who finished fourth at the U.S. trials, would be next in line. Ludlow’s season best of 1:58.68 ranks her sixth in the world.
