Fresh from winning the world 800m bronze medal in Eugene, World under 18 400m silver medalist Mary Moraa sailed to the final of the 800m at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, England.
Moraa clocked 1:59.22 to win the first hear beating Uganda’s 2019 World Champion Halima Nakaayi who timed 1:59.35 to second and secure the second available automatic qualification slot.
But she will be the only Kenyan to make the cut after compatriot Jarinter Mawia failed to qualify when she finished fourth in her heat in 2:00.95.
