Team GB's Olympic women's 800m champion Keely Hodgkinson has ended her 2024 season early with injury.
Hodgkinson, who won all nine of her 800m races this year, returned triumphant from France and had targeted breaking the world record of one minute and 53.28 seconds, set by Czech athlete Jarmila Kratochvilova in 1983.
The 22-year-old from Manchester made the announcement on , telling followers:
"No more races for me!! Unfortunately I picked up a small injury, but we achieved everything I had hoped to do this year, thank you for all the love and support!! See you on the track next year."
Hodginkson successfully defended her European Championship title earlier this year in Rome, and broke her own national record at the Diamond League meeting in London, just ahead of the Paris Games.
She will look to upgrade the two previous silver medals she has won at the World Championships, when Tokyo hosts the event in 2025.
