Katarina Johnson-Thompson says winning world heptathlon gold in Budapest is 'like being in a dream' on a stellar night for GB in Budapest.
Katarina Johnson-Thompson is back on top of the world and Zharnel Hughes earned a breakthrough 100m bronze on a stellar night for GB in Budapest.
Hughes, who clocked 9.88 seconds to win bronze, said: "My heart is full with emotions, I'm just super grateful. "In Tokyo I still thought I had a chance, I still thought I could have medalled. In Eugene I tried my best and I wasn't getting anywhere," Johnson-Thompson said. But she produced a personal best - having also done so in the javelin - of two minutes 05.63 seconds to finish within 1.54 secs of the talented 22-year-old American, taking overall victory by 20 points."No-one wrote her off, but we didn't expect her to come away [as] best in the world again."
The 28-year-old's Olympic ambitions were abruptly ended by a false start in the Tokyo final two years ago, while he failed to qualify from his Worlds semi-final in 2022.
