He ran a 1:45.07 in the b heat of the LA Grand Prix.
Hobbs might has more talent in the 800m than the 1500m. Clayton Murphy was viewed as more of a 1500m runner before winning an Olympic medal. I think Hobbs could / should do the same thing.
No. If he makes the 1500 team there is no reason to take another spot in an event he currently has no chance medaling in. His one and only goal should be to make the 1500 team and try to place as high as possible in the final. The kid is 21 years old and has a world indoor bronze in the miler. He’s a 1500m/miler who can also run a pretty quick 800m and probably 3k. If he doesn’t make the 1500m team, he can give the 800m a go maybe.

3:48 is better than 1:45.07. And if you watched that 800m heat with him going out in 25.4 and the dicey stuff at the end, tactical 800s are a scary prospect. He should stick with the 1500.

And I think he might have been DQ ed
however if unimpded he would have run under 1:45:.00
I think he will be able to do that at some point this season yes. But why are you so convinced he is 1.5s faster than Kessler? In NYC last year the gap was 1.25s. Kessler has improved more than Bryce since then.
