Winfred Yavi World Lead: Winfred Yavi's run in the Women's 3000m Steeplechase event will be remembered for ages, as the Bahrain athlete broke a list of records with her iconic run at the Olympic Stadium in Rome. The iconic stadium, which is home to historic football clubs — AS Roma and Lazio, has been the venue that let the fans witness some iconic moments throughout the decades, and Winfred Yavi's run on Friday will surely go down in history books as one of the finest feats in Women's Athletics ever.
During her run, the Bahrainis clocked the time of 8:44:39 (divided in the ratio of minutes:seconds:milliseconds) which has now the following records:
- New World Lead
- New Asian Record
- New Diamond League Record
- Personal Best of Winfred Yavi
However, what grabbed the eyeballs of viewers around the world was the fact that this historic run still remains fraction of seconds shy off the world record, and the margin will surely surprise all the readers. Yes..., it is an agonisingly 0.07 seconds short of the world record, which is 8:44.32, set by Kenya's Beatrice Chepkoech back in 2018.
The Paris Olympics 2024 Gold medalist in Women's 3000m Steeplechase is now a record-holder in many categories, and merely 24 years old, it seems like a start of something legendary in Women's Athletics.
