Caster Semenya (RSA), World and Olympic Champion over 800m has decided to tackle the 1500m on the 5th of July at Athletissima in Lausanne. She will be attempting to rock the 1500m hierarchy and dominate the distance. A time of 3:55 is possible, but she will need to beat strong competition from Gudaf Tsegay (ETH) whom has been racking up the victories in 2018. Laura Muir (GBR) runner-up in the World Indoor Championships, Shelby Houlihan (USA) and the Moroccan, Rababe Harafi (MAR), all of whom have run sub-4-minute times this season and faster than Semenya, will also be in the pack. Last but not least, Sifan Hassan (NED), World Indoor Champion in 2016 and bronze medalist in 2015 and 2017 over 5000m, will be raring to go.
