American Cole Hocker pulled the upset of the Olympics tonight, beating his personal-best time by more than three seconds to outrace favourites Jakob Ingebrigsten and Josh Kerr for the title at 1,500 meters. Hocker won the race in an Olympic record 3:27.65 pulling from fifth to first over the final 300 meters to take down the two runners whose rivalry dominated the buildup to the much-anticipated race.
