Keely Hodgkinson captured her first world indoor title in commanding fashion as she claimed 800m gold in a championship record time in Poland.

The Olympic gold medallist became Great Britain’s first women’s 800m world champion – indoors or outdoors – after she led throughout to clock one minute 55.30 seconds.

The world record holder continued to the warm-up track following her victory, suggesting she intends to represent her nation in the women’s 4x400m relay at the end of the final day of action in Torun.

The outdoor worlds and Commonwealth Games are now the only major international championships, of the six she is eligible for, where Hodgkinson is yet to win 800m gold.

Hodgkinson’s triumph was Great Britain’s fourth medal in Torun – each of them gold – and wrapped up 28 minutes of success after triumphs for her training partner Georgia Hunter Bell and pole vaulter Molly Caudery on a sensational Sunday for the team.

Josh Kerr had kick-started the celebrations by winning the 3,000m title on Saturday.
