NEW YORK – Jamaica’s record-holder Natoya Goule is set for another showdown with Ajeé Wilson in the Jack and Lewis Rudin Women’s 800m at the 113th NYRR Millrose Games on 8 February 2020.
The venue is The Armory New Balance Track & Field Center in New York.
Goule, last year’s Millrose runner-up and the 2019 Pan-American Games champion, is seeking her first Millrose Games win over Wilson.
Goule’s outdoor personal best of 1:56.15 is second in the field behind only Wilson. She finished sixth in the World Championship final this past October.
Wilson, the race favoruite, will be tested by an accomplished field that also includes multiple European and Diamond League champion, Laura Muir.
“The Armory track is one of my favourite places to compete,” Wilson said, “and I am really excited to be coming back to defend my Millrose Games title.”
Wilson, a New Jersey native, is no stranger to the bright lights of the NYRR Millrose Games.
Last year she set the American 800m indoor record of 1:58.60 on her way to a victory. In 2018 she anchored Team USA to the 4x800m world record at the Millrose Games.
Other athletes to watch in the Jack and Lewis Rudin Women’s 800m include Britain’s Shelayna Oskan-Clarke and American Ce′Aira Brown.
Jamaican Briana Williams will face American Allyson Felix in the women’s 60m.
