World Athletics Championships Odds - Women's Pole Vault

Katie Moon has won the last two World titles but might not have been the nailed on favourite had some key opponents not been missing. Finished behind Nina Kennedy at the Paris Olympics after a third place behind Great Britain's Molly Caudery at the World Indoors last year. However, both of those winners are not in today's competition, so it could be Moon's to lose.

World Athletics Championships Odds - Men's Long Jump

Miltiadis Tentoglou is the overwhelming favourite, and for good reason. He has won the last two Olympics and was champion at the World Athletics Championships in Budapest two years ago. He's not been beaten in a major competition by any of today's competitors. Will that fact change today?

World Athletics Championships Odds - Men's 1500m

In one of the biggest shocks of the World Athletics Championships, Jakob Ingebrigtsen was knocked out of the 1500 metres in the heats, which means we won't see a repeat of the Norwegian coming up against Josh Kerr, who beat him to gold in Budapest in thrilling fashion.

Kerr isn't the favourite to defend his crown this time around, though, as 20-year-old upstart Niels Laros qualified fastest. 2022 champion Jake Wightman has had a rough time staying fit since but is also a contender for the crown if fit.
