Former world 800m champion Al-fred Kirwa Yego predicted the Ken-yans would dominate the men’s 800 metres at this month’s World Cham-pionships in Daegu.

The 24-year-old Yego, who won a silver medal at the last champion-ships in Berlin, will line up alongside world record holder David Rudisha and Jackson Kivuva, the 2006 world junior 800m silver medallist, in the race.

And he is confident the Kenyan three-pronged assault will be un-beatable.

“I believe the team is very strong.

“If we stay focused together and go to Korea with one mind, I don’t see anything to stop us. We feel very proud to have a world record holder among us,” said Yego.
