Olympic 800m champion Keely Hodgkinson has pulled out of Sunday’s Stockholm Diamond League event after suffering a setback in her recovery from a hamstring injury.<\/b><\/p>\n

The 23-year-old was ruled out of the Keely Klassic – a new athletics event she founded – in February after tearing her hamstring.<\/p>\n

She had been due to return on Sunday in Sweden for her first competitive outing of 2025. <\/p>\n

The race would have seen Hodgkinson come up against Olympic rivals Tsige Duguma of Ethopia and Mary Moraa of Kenya, who won silver and bronze in Paris respectively. <\/p>\n

However, BBC Sport has been told that Hodgkinson’s return has been further delayed after a setback in her recovery from the hamstring issue that ended her indoor season.<\/p>\n

Hodgkinson, who was awarded an MBE last month, won 800m gold in Paris last summer with a stunning one minute 56.72 seconds run.<\/p>\n

While no timeframe has been put on Hodgkinson’s return, she hopes to compete in September’s World Championships in Tokyo, Japan. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
