Silver medal for Jessica Hull in Olympic 1500

Jessica Hull has become the first Australian female runner to win an Olympic 1500m medal, finishing a sensational second behind legendary Kenyan Faith Kipyegon at the Paris Games.

Hull, 27, was in third place with 100 metres to go but was able to overtake flagging Ethiopian Diribe Welteji in the final straight to pocket the silver in three minutes 52.56 seconds – her second-fastest time ever.
