Kenya's Emmanuel Wanyonyi won the Oslo Diamond League 800m with a season-best but cited a majot setback.
Kenyan middle-distance sensation Emmanuel Wanyonyi has opened up about a recent challenge that slightly derailed his ambitious quest to break David Rudisha's long-standing 800m world record.
Despite clinching another win on the Diamond League circuit in Oslo, Norway, Wanyonyi admitted fatigue may have affected his performance after a demanding travel schedule from Kenya.
The reigning Olympic champion had made a strong start to the season, collecting victories at both the Diamond League and Grand Slam Track meets.
