It has been far from plain sailing for Hodgkinson since she stormed to 800m gold at Paris 2024, but the 23-year-old has put her injury troubles behind her and looks back to her best.

She blew away the competition in her first race back to win at the Diamond League event – recording the fastest time in the world this year and the second-quickest of her career – before setting a meet record in her victory at Lausanne Diamond League a few weeks later.

Seb Coe has tipped Hodgkinson to become Britain's greatest middle-distance runner and, after silvers at the World Athletics Championships in 2022 and 2023, she will look to write the next chapter of her legacy in Tokyo by claiming a first world title.
