Hassan took gold in 30 minutes 17.62 seconds, ahead of Ethiopia’s Letesenbet Gidey. The bronze went to Agnes Jebet Tirop of Kenya. Price, a two-time NCAA champion at Southern Illinois who lost large parts of her career to injuries, wept after winning the gold as she posed with the flag. Fiodorow was overjoyed with silver and celebrated with teammates.The world record holder and Olympic champion, Anita Wlodarczyk of Poland, didn’t compete at worlds due to injury.He’s the world record holder in the pole vault, but Renaud Lavillenie has failed to even make the final.
