With a best jump of 8m in the qualifying round, Sreeshankar finished seventh and was the only Indian to progress to the medal round that will be held on Saturday (6.50am India time, Sunday).
There were two other Indians in the fray but both couldn’t make the cut. Jeswin Aldrin, who made into the team at the last minute due to the federation’s controversial policy, had a best attempt of 7.79m while
Muhammed Anees Yahiya had a best jump of 7.73m. They finished outside the top-12 and could not progress to the final.
Sreeshankar wasn’t the only one to make it to the final on the opening day of the world championships.
National record holder Sable finished third in his heat with a timing of 8 minutes and 18.75 seconds to qualify for the final of the 3000m steeplechase.

Sable’s effort saw him finish seventh overall in the qualifying round, with Morocco’s Soufiane El Bakkali finishing on top after clocking 8:16.65. Sable’s final will be held on Monday in Eugene (7.50am India time on Tuesday).
It took a thrilling lean-in finish at the end for Sable to just about hold off Yemane Haileselassie, who was breathing down his neck.
In other events featuring Indians, Sandeep Kumar finished 40th in the 20km race walk with a time of 1hr 31min 58sec while in the women’s event, Priyanka Goswami finished 34th after clocking 1:39.42.
Tajinderpal Singh Toor pulled out of the shot put qualifiers.

During races and training sessions in India, steeplechase athlete Avinash Sable craved competition, because he was miles ahead of other runners at home. Now Sable, 27, is getting a taste of running against the best in the world.
Soufiane El Bakkali, the Tokyo Olympics gold medallist, was the toast of the home crowd during the Rabat Diamond League on Sunday night. El Bakkali found an extra gear on the home stretch to stave off the challenge of Ethiopia’s Lamecha Girma. Like in Tokyo, two of the world’s best had pushed each other to the limit to produce an exciting finish.

El Bakkali produced a world-leading time of 7 minutes, 58.28 seconds and looks to be the favourite for the World Championships next month. Sable, used to leading races at home, didn’t really challenge the top three at any point in the race yet his fifth-place finish was special for the army man from drought-prone Beed in Maharashtra. His 8:12.48 in an elite field of runners was a national record, and the eighth time he has rewritten the mark. He is bound to go faster, his long-time coach Amrish Kumar said.Best of Express PremiumPremiumPremiumPremiumPremium

Kumar, a South Asian Games gold medallist in steeplechase, has good reason to be optimistic. “This year, if he is injury-free, Avinash can clock 8:04. Actually, he could have run this fast last year at the Tokyo Olympics but had tested positive for Covid-19 twice. It affected his training and he also didn’t get an exposure tour after contracting Covid.
“This year, he is getting back to his best and with the World Championships and Commonwealth Games coming up, he could spring a surprise. I believe he could have won bronze at the Tokyo Olympics (Kenya’s Benjamin Kigen finished third with 8:11.45). Maybe, this year he will,” Amrish, who coached Sable till the Tokyo Olympics, said.
Kigen finished eighth in Rabat, a small victory for Sable.
Army coach Amrish calls Sable a ‘human engine’. When Sable moved to steeplechase from cross-country running in early 2017, he joined an experienced group of athletes who were much faster than him. “Within a year, he not only bettered the other runners in the group but also broke the national record. The reason I call him a human engine is because running is his life.
“He trains, eats, rests, trains. He has a one-track mind and it only focuses on running. He is hardy, strong and blessed with endurance. Maybe I am putting two and two together but he hails from a place which is very hot and has water issues. His body is used to enduring a lot from a young age,” Amrish said.
Tough beginning
As a Class-1 student, Sable used to walk and jog 12 kilometres to school and back to Mandava village in Beed. His parents Mukund and Vaishali grew wheat on their farm and also worked as daily contract labourers. To uplift his family and have a steady job, Sable joined the Indian Army.
From the freezing cold in Siachen to the scorching summers in Lalgarh Jattan, Rajasthan, Sable faced extreme weather during his early postings. He was spotted by Amrish during a cross-country race in Hyderabad. The 27-year-old had finished eighth in that race but Amrish noticed the natural running style.
“When I asked him to take up steeplechase in January 2017, he was willing but a little apprehensive. Maybe it was because of the hurdles. But I had told him back then that he would break the national record not once but many times. Just before he travelled for the Diamond League, we had a conversation. We discussed how many seconds he would break the national record by,” Amrish said.

Sable is currently training in Colorado Springs with distance coach Scott Simmons. In May, he proved he is an all-rounder by breaking Bahadur Prasad’s 30-year-old 5,000m national record in a high-quality field in San Juan Capistrano. Sable is also the half-marathon record holder.

Amrish believes no distance running record is safe if Sable remains fit and hungry. “I am predicting that he will also break the 10,000m national record,” his long-time coach said. “With Sable, your predictions never go wrong.”
