Sifan Hassan wins Women's 10000M As Kenya`s Hellen Obiri Comes 4th
Netherland's Siffan Hassan won the 10000m women`s final at the Tokyo Olympics games as Kenya's Hellen Obiri finished 4th with a personal best of 30:24.27.
Obiri finished behind Ethiopia’s Letesenbet Gidey, Bahrain’s Kalkidan Gezahegne, and Sifan Hassan.
Her win was anticipated earlier by Kenyans but It came ironically.
However, Kenyans on Twitter congratulated Obiri for her efforts.
Good trial Hellen Obiri and team Kenya. Running with an injury isn't easy. Double gold for Sifan Hassan. She’s formidable. Too bad Hellen Obiri ran out of gas at some point. Mental strength counts a lot in endurance.
Congrats
