Kenya lose world Athletics hosting rights to Tokyo

Kenya has failed to host the 2025 World Athletics championships after falling to Tokyo.

Athletics Kenya had placed a bid to host the championships following their successful hosting of world under 18 in 2017 and world under 20 in 2021 at the Kasarani stadium.

Kenya missed out on the opportunity after Tokyo was selected to host the global bi-annual event on Thursday.

The decision was rubber-stamped at the Council’s meeting in Eugene, just hours before the 18th edition of the World Championships that began on Friday.
