Hodgkinson Wraps Up Season with Victorious Display at Athlos Meet in New York
The athlete recorded her fastest time of 1:54.61 last year in the British capital.
Keely Hodgkinson concluded her two-lap season with a win at the all-female Athlos event in NYC on Friday evening.
{The current Olympic gold medallist, who earned third place at the global championships recently, excelled in an outstanding victory in one minute 56.53 seconds in what was only her sixth race in a season impacted by a muscle issue.
Fellow Briton and global silver winner Georgia Bell finished second again in one minute 58.33 seconds, while St Vincent's Shafiqua Maloney (1:58.57) claimed third.
"I've barely raced this season so it was likely less of a struggle for me to compete and want to give it something," stated Hodgkinson.
"The atmosphere at the event is incredible so it was extremely enjoyable."
The women-only meet packed the stadium in its second edition, introducing a party atmosphere to traditional track, with live music and Tiffany & Co. crowns replacing standard medals.
The 23-times tennis major winner Serena Williams, who is married to the founder of Athlos Alexis Ohanian, was present to present the winners with their tiaras.
Previous champions took home sixty thousand dollars (£44,603) - one of the largest prize purses in athletics.
The event also drew several top athletes, as Kenya's three-time Olympic gold medallist and world record holder Faith Kipyegon won the mile, finishing in 4:17.78.
The US Brittany Brown, the 200m bronze medallist from the recent Paris Games, won the sprint double.
