World Athletics Indoor Championships: British trio Keely Hodgkinson, Georgia Hunter Bell and Molly Caudery all win gold

Georgia Hunter Bell, Molly Caudery and Keely Hodgkinson won their events at the World Indoor Championships within the span of just 30 minutes

Keely Hodgkinson claimed her first world indoor 800m title with an emphatic performance to clinch gold in Poland.

The Brit showed her dominance right from the gun, and eased away before storming down the final straight to clock 1:55.30, a championship record.

She has come close to World Championship gold previously, but fell short with silver in 2022 and 2023 before a bronze in 2025.

Keely Hodgkinson finally has World, Olympic and European golds

The achievement also caps off a dreamy individual indoor season for Hodgkinson following her world indoor record-breaking run in February.

This summer Hodgkinson will target the European Championships in Birmingham, but she has also made it clear she is looking to break the longest standing world record in athletics: the outdoor women's 800m.

Georgia Hunter Bell was able to finally take the crown after numerous silver and bronze global medals

Hodgkinson's training partner Georgia Hunter Bell also took gold for GB on Sunday, winning the 1500m earlier in the evening for her maiden global title.

She ran a world leading time of 3:58.53 to take the win ahead of Australia's Jessica Hull and America's Nikki Hiltz after beating her team-mate, Hodgkinson, to silver in the 800m at the world championships last year.

Molly Caudery ruptured her ankle ligaments in the warm up at the Tokyo world championships in September, an injury that could have been career ending

Britain's 2024 world indoor champion, Molly Caudery, also regained her title with 4.85m in the women's pole vault after a painful two years that saw a string of serious injuries and no height measured at the Paris 2024 Olympics.

The three golds won within the space of just thirty minutes saw Great Britain's medal tally triple to finish the weekend second in the medal table with just four medals - but all gold.

In a twist that no one expected, GB's team for the 4x400m featured two of the country's biggest athletic stars Hodgkinson and Dina Asher-Smith to take fifth in the final.

Hodgkinson somehow found some energy in her legs to storm round for two more laps to try and catch the leading four but had too much left to do and crossed the line just two seconds out of the medals.

Asher-Smith had ran in the 60m final on March 21 and has ran 400m but very rarely, while Hodgkinson ran her first indoor 400m in four years at the start of this month fresh off her world record.

Elsewhere at the championships

In the men's 800m the youngest ever world indoor champion was crowned as America's 17-year-old Cooper Lutkenhaus controlled the race to clock 1:44.24 after a breakthrough year in 2025.

While in the men's long jump, the reigning Olympic and reigning world indoor champion Mattia Furlani was bumped from the top spot in the final round by Portugal's Gerson Balde with 8.46m in a thrilling competition.

It was one of the best ever men's long jump indoor competitions with third place going to Bulgaria's Bozhidar Saraboyukov with 8.31m and Furlani in second with 8.39m.
