Zero American Men Advance To 800m Final
No American men advanced to the 2017 IAAF World Championships 800m final.
One year after Clayton Murphy earned bronze in the 800m at the Olympic Games, no American man advanced to the 800m final at the IAAF World Championships in London. World leader Emmanuel Korir of Kenya -- who won two NCAA 800m titles as a freshman at UTEP this year -- also failed to advance to his first global championship final.
Of the Americans, U.S. champion Donavan Brazier ran the fastest tonight in London despite slowing in the final meters to walk across the line in 1:46.27. He placed just seventh in the final section of the evening. Isaiah Harris placed fourth in the first heat in 1:46.66 and Drew Windle placed fifth in heat 2 in 1:46.33.
