NEW YORK, New York — The World Athletics Indoor Tour made its first stateside stop Saturday with a Gold meeting at the 114th Millrose Games. Set at the iconic Armory, hot competition was a stark contrast to the snow-covered city of New York. American indoor record holder Elle Purrier St. Pierre looked comfortable in running the second-fastest time ever by a U.S. woman in the indoor mile, clocking a world-leading 4:19.30 for her second straight Millrose title. Purrier St. Pierre, who ran 4:16.85 to set the AR and win in 2020, moved away from Josette Norris over the last 400m, but Norris closed well and moved to No. 3 on the all-time U.S. performer list with a 4:20.81 in second. Shannon Osika took over the No. 10 spot on that list with her 4:24.19 in fifth. Athing Mu stepped off the track with 200 to go and did not finish. Familiar competitors from their collegiate days and most recently from the USATF Cross Country Championships, Alicia Monson and Weini Kelati pulled away from the pack after the halfway point of the women’s 3,000m. Monson, a 10,000m Olympian in Tokyo who beat Kelati at those cross country championships earlier this month, made the pace through 2km in 5:43.59 and then cranked up the tempo on the final two laps to win in a stellar 8:31.62, a world-leading time and a meet record that moved her to No. 4 on the all-time U.S. performer list. Kelati’s 8:33.72 in second put her at No. 6 on the all-time U.S. performer list. Reigning World Indoor and USATF Indoor champion Sandi Morris won the women’s pole vault with a world-leading 4.75m/15-7. Morris, the meet record holder, was clear first time at her first two heights and then needed two attempts at 4.65m/15-3 and at her winning height before going out with three misses at 4.80m/15-9. Emily Grove took second, going over 4.45m/14-7.25, and Olympic champion Katie Nageotte ended up third. Kenya’s Michael Saruni had the fastest lifetime best coming into the race and surged to the lead midway through the third lap of the men’s 800m, but Bryce Hoppel came off the final turn and turned on the speed to move past Saruni and win in a world-leading 1:46.05. Following the pacemaker through 400m in 52.17, Hoppel, who set an American indoor record in the 1,000m last year, had the lead until the 500m mark and then stayed on Saruni’s shoulder until making his winning move. Saruni ended up second in 1:46.32 and Isaiah Harris was third in 1:46.49. A mad dash over the last 200m in the men’s 3,000m gave New Zealand’s Geordie Beamish a national record and victory in 7:39.50 after he sneaked past Cooper Teare on the inside in the final 20m. Teare and former Oregon teammate Cole Hocker were in the lead at the bell and reversed the order of finish from last year’s NCAA Indoor Championships, with both setting lifetime bests. Teare held on for second in 7:39.61, the fastest time by an American this year, while Hocker also dipped under 7:40 with his third-place 7:39.83. Guatemala’s Luis Grijalva set a national record in fourth, and Conner Mantz, the 2021 USATF Half Marathon champion, notched a lifetime best with a 7:41.43 in fifth. The top 10 finishers all recorded personal bests. Training partners Aleia Hobbs and Mikiah Brisco sprinted to a 1-2 finish in the women’s 60m, with Hobbs winning in 7.11 and Brisco, the reigning U.S. indoor champion, at 7.15. The biggest story in the race was a high school national record by 16-year-old Shawnti Jackson, who placed third in 7.18 to shave .01 off the previous record set in 2004 by Ashley Owens and equaled in 2020 by Tamari Davis. World record holder and defending World Indoor champion Christian Coleman, running his first 60m since 2020, was out side-by-side with Trayvon Bromell in the men’s 60m and then eased ahead by the slimmest of margins to win in 6.49, .01 up on Bromell. Ronnie Baker was third in 6.54. Last year's U.S. Olympic Trials runner-up and Olympic sixth-place finisher Tara Davis hit 6.59m/21-7.5 on her opening attempt in the women's long jump and that mark held up for the win, with fellow Olympian Quanesha Burks second at 6.54m/21-5.5. Triple jump American record holder Keturah Orji matched Burks' mark but Burks had a better secondary mark to get the nod for second. 2019 Toyota USATF Outdoor Championships 110m hurdles winner Daniel Roberts was out quickest and had a half-step lead to the first barrier in the men's 60m hurdles, but 2021 Diamond League 110m hurdles champion Devon Allen powered over the final two hurdles to edge past Roberts on the way to the finish, taking the victory in a world-leading 7.51. Roberts was second in 7.53. Jamaica's Britany Anderson sped over the final three barriers in the women's 60H to come away victorious in 7.91 ahead of Devynne Charlton of the Bahamas, who placed second in 7.95. Tonea Marshall was the first American across the line in 7.99 for third, and Olympic 100H silver medalist Keni Harrison, the world leader in 2022 at 7.81, ended up fourth in 8.00. Gabbi Cunningham took fifth, also in 8.00, with Harrison .005 in front of her. Jamaica’s Christopher Taylor, sixth at Tokyo last summer, led throughout the men’s 400m to win in 46.38, swinging wide into the homestretch to force Vernon Norwood and American 800m record holder Donavan Brazier wide as well, with Norwood placing second in 46.45 and Brazier third in a lifetime best 46.55 as he dropped down to half his normal racing distance. Tokyo 4x400m relay gold medalist Wadeline Jonathas was first through the 200m mark in the women's 400m and ran on to win her second straight Millrose title in 52.51, just in front of Jessica Beard, who took second in 52.95. Winning her third consecutive Millrose women’s 800m, American indoor record holder Ajee’ Wilson led Natoya Goule of Jamaica by .15 through 600m in 1:31.49 and extended her lead over the final circuit to win in 2:01.38, with Goule second in 2:02.14. Australia’s Ollie Hoare used a 57.57 final 400m to win the men’s mile in a national record 3:50.83, the fastest time in the world this year. Britain’s Josh Kerr, who was sixth in the 1,500m at Tokyo last summer, held the lead briefly but couldn’t match Hoare’s finishing kick and ended up second in 3:52.27, a lifetime best. Colby Alexander also clocked a personal best in third place, finishing as the top American in 3:52.84. After the Millrose Games Men’s shot put competition, officials found that the measuring device that was originally correctly located and calibrated, was discovered to be improperly positioned during the competition. As a result, all of the throws in the men’s shot put competition have been nullified. For full results go here.
