Kenyan's comeback started in Diamond League meet in Eugene earier this month where he placed in a disappointing 7th place, but a week later in New York Diamond League Rudisha dominated the 800m by winning the race in 1:44.67.

 The next race for the 25 year old Rudisha will be in Glasgow Diamond League on July 12 where he will compete in the 800.
