Top SA middle-distance runner Ryan Mphahlele hopes to run a World Championships standard qualifying time of 3:34:20 in the 1500m event at the South African Senior Track and Field championships at the Puk MacArthur Stadium in Potchefstroom from Thursday to Saturday.
South African track and field coach of the year Werner Prinsloo says SA 100m champion Akani Simbine could end his long wait for a medal at the World Championships in Budapest later this year.
