Sunday Recap

A phenomenal championship for the USA ended with the team winning 29 medals in Doha, Qatar.

Three further golds were added on the final day in the 400-metre relays and the women's 100-metre hurdles.

Ali produced the best run of her hurdling career, with the 30-year-old smashing her personal best to pip Harrison and Williams.

The Olympic Channel recognised Ali's achievement:

A new star was born in the javelin after Peters recorded the longest throw of the competition on his fourth attempt. The 21-year-old took the next step in his career, fulfilling his promise and becoming world champion.

Kirt pushed Peters all the way, and the experienced Estonian raised his game to capture the silver.

Makhloufi and Lewandowski gave chase behind Cheruiyot, but despite running fast times, neither athlete could catch the Kenyan in the 1,500 metres. Makhloufi ran a season's best to earn the silver during a pulsating finale.

Cheptegei narrowly defeated Kejelcha on the home stretch in the 10,000 metres, setting a world-best time, with the silver medalist beating his personal best.

The 25-year-old jumped 38 centimetres further than her nearest rival, and her winning leap of 7.30 metres broke her personal best.
