46.28! Karsten Warholm Blasts to #3 All-Time in Silesia
By Weldon Johnson
Karsten Warholm is more than back.
The 2020 Olympic champion and 3-time world champion was only 3rd in his last 400m hurdles race two months ago in Stockholm, but he more than made up for that performance, as he blasted a 46.28 to dominate the 400m hurdle race in the Silesia Diamond League meeting in Poland. The time was the 3rd best performance ever in the 400m hurdles and a Diamond League record. It was also a full second faster than Warholm’s previous season’s best of 47.28.
The all-time performance list now looks like this:
| Rank | Athlete | Time | Date | Location |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Karsten Warholm | 45.94 | 3 Aug 2021 | Tokyo, Japan |
| 2 | Rai Benjamin | 46.17 | 3 Aug 2021 | Tokyo, Japan |
