TOKYO, Sept. 17 (Xinhua) -- Portugal's Isaac Nader claimed a dramatic victory in the men's 1,500 meters at the World Athletics Championships here on Wednesday, clocking 3 minutes 34.10 seconds.
Britain's Jake Wightman, the 2022 world champion, was narrowly denied the title, finishing second in 3:34.12, while Kenya's Reynold Cheruiyot secured the bronze in 3:34.25.
The triumph marks Nader's first global title, a breakthrough achievement for the 26-year-old whose previous best on the international stage had been two top-eight finishes at the World Indoor Championships. ■
