He was 10th in Doha just recently.
That was his opener and it was a Diamond League meet.
Though no Diamond pints for the men's 1500 there.
So I guess Shanghai is his DL "points" opener.

Kiprop obviously is in such excellent shape it's as if he never got hurt, but I didn't think the Letsrun guys gave enough credit to Kiplagat in their wrap-up of last week's Doha meet. Would he have beaten Kiprop if he hadn't been tripped? Probably not--but running 3.34 after getting tripped at the start of the last lap is pretty impressive in my mind. I'd keep a close eye on him in Shanghai.

3:34 is a very impressive opener, considering the stumble/fall cost him ~15m on the field.
