And then he will win the 1500 title too!
He has quietly sneaked into the Zurich 800. Unless the rules changed this year, Zurich points count double so if he wins, and Rudisha isn't 2nd, Kiprop wins the title outright.

Well, you did call it correctly last time Wigins.
Kiprop to finish 3rd, Rudisha 4th, Souleiman 5th
Aman ftw ahead of Amos

Actually, if Kiprop wins, it doesn't matter if Rudisha is second. They'll have the same amount of points (12), but if there's a tie the better finish in Thursday's race is the tie-breaker, thus Kiprop wins.
If he does that, then comes back to win the 1,500m title, that'd be a cool $100k and two sweet Diamond trophies over a one week span, not to mention all the sponsor bonuses he'd get for finishing #1 in both events.
As usual, you "got" cocky (well, you can't become something that you already are 24/7).
Shoulda quit the Kiprop-will-get-upset-win-in-the-800 game while you were briefly ahead.
(don't worry, it happens to all the letsrunners who like to step out on a limb and make a bold prediction. Remember VIPAM predicting Bekele's smashing of the 5k/10k records? Yes, a great call. But he went too far and ALSO stated in the very same post (no one seems to remember this)- ' El G has not shot against Bekele in a 5k' if he tries in WC's/OG's. "BZZZZZ" Wrong answer)
Nothing ventured, nothing gained. It's ok if a few of my picks don't pan out. The rest of you can play it safe, I'm a mover and shaker, a risk-taker, a go-getter. I live fast and hard and on the edge. Danger is my middle name.
