Faith Kipyegon is on her way to claim a triple gold medal at the ongoing Olympic Games in Paris, France.
Today evening, the double 1,500m Olympic champion stormed into the finals of the 1,500m race after winning in the semifinals.
Other Kenyans Nelly Chepchirchir and Susan Ejore, who were making their debut at Olympics failed to make it to the finals.
Chepchirchir will miss the finals after crossing the finish line in the 11th position timing 4:03.24 while Ejore failed to shine hence missing out after crossing the line in 5th position at 3:56.57.
