Karsten Warholm established himself as king of the 400m hurdles at the end of 2019, clocking a European and Diamond League record of 46.92 to claim a jaw-dropping victory over rival Rai Benjamin and win the Diamond League Final in Zurich.
After successfully defendeing his world championship title in Doha a few weeks later, the Norwegian looked set to make history in 2020 with a shot at Olympic gold and the world record within reach.
Even the coronavirus pandemic couldn’t force Warholm to break his stride this year, as the one-lap wonder rampaged to victory after victory in the Wanda Diamond League and moved milliseconds closer to being the fastest 400m hurdler in history.
From his world-best beating solo run over 300m hurdles to his new European and Diamond League record in Stockholm, we’ve collated some of Warholm’s finest performances this season in a clip which will premiere on YouTube at 20.00 CET (GMT+1) on Sunday evening.
