Khadevis Robinson won his fourth 800m title on Sunday at the USA Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Indianapolis. Robinson followed a pattern he set in his semi-final of getting away from the pack early and holding a hot pace longer than anyone else, such that runner-up Nick Symmonds observed, "When I reached the homestretch, I knew I was going to take second." Robinson won in 1:44.37 with Symmonds in 1:45.17 and USC's Duane Solomon third in 1:45.69.
"I figured if I made it a 1:44 race, they would have to run a PR to beat me," Robinson explained. "And if they could do that, they would be having a great day--after all, if I ran a PR by a second and a half, I'd be at 1:42 flat."
