Jamaica’s Natoya Goule made light work of the women’s 800m first round at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.
Goule ran effortless and, as usual, went to the front from early. She crossed the line comfortably in 1:59.83. Goule split at 100m was 14.1, 28.4 (200m), 44.1 (300m), 59.9 (400m), 1:15.5 (500m), 1:30.2 (600m) and 1:44.6 (700m).
Noelie Yarigo (BEN) took second behind Goule in 2:00.11, while Hedda Hynee (NOR) was the other automatic qualifier in 2:00.76.
American rising star Athing Mu, who led at the bell in 1:02.1, but trailed into the straight, won the third heat in 2:01.10. Mu, who looked very easy, bounced across the line, hardly lifting her long legs.
Habitam Alemu (ETH), who led the pack into the straight, finished second in 2:01.20.
Jemma Reekie (GBR) was the second-fastest qualifier with 1:59.97, Ajee Wilson (USA), the third-best from the first round, and 2:00.02.
