A total of 45 athletes will represent Kenya at the Commonwealth Games.

Following the two-day trial at the Kasarani Stadium, Athletics Kenya revealed the list of athletes that will be representing the country at the World Athletics Championship and Commonwealth Games.

Athletics Kenya will send 45 athletes to the Commonwealth Games slated for Birmingham, United Kingdom, July 28- August 8 with the country expected to send a total of 123 athletes from other disciplines.

Following a spectacular race in 800m, Team Kenya will be represented by Emmanuel Korir, Wycliffe Kinyamal, Cornelius Tuwei, and Emmanuel Wanyonyi who recovered from a line mix-up to finish second.

Africa’s fastest man, Ferdinand Omanyala will fly the Kenyan flag high in the 100m but will have to shave some time off his race at the trials after running 10:03 if he is to stand a chance of winning.

The World Championships will be held on July 15-24 in Oregon, USA.
