Olympic champion Keely Hodgkinson made a triumphant return to action on Saturday as she ran a world-leading time in her first 800m since winning gold at the Paris Games last year.

The 23-year-old Briton showed no sign of the lingering hamstring problems that had sidelined her for months as she clocked a meet record of 1min 54.74sec in hot and humid conditions in the Polish city of Chorzow.
"That was so much fun," said Hodgkinson, who had described her comeback race at the Silesia Diamond League meet as a vital "stepping stone" to the September 13-21 world championships in Tokyo.
"It is amazing, I really wanted to have this opportunity, I don't have much time to get ready for the worlds, so I have to put something down," she added.
