“I don’t think Jakob watches BBC2” | Josh Kerr on his world indoor 3000m gold medal

After Josh Kerr wins the world indoor 3000m title in Glasgow he reflects on the race and is asked if he thinks Jakob Ingebrigtsen may have been watching.

[@TheRunningShoeGuru]

Certainly does have confidence in his ability and he ran incredibly well. Edge of the seat viewing for those of us watching from home. Well done. 👍

[@davidsmeath4556]

Very impressive, both as an athlete and speaking to the press. The Olympic 1500m is going to be one for the ages!

[@CliveBramham]

With another world gold, Josh is now "the athlete he always wanted to be" . And it shows in this interview!

[@redravenrages6321]

I didn't even realize he was a Scot! Automatically my favorite for Paris now, lolZ!

[@leocossham]

Couldn't you tell from his accent?

[@luckyspurs]

Did a brilliant job keeping his pace consistent and basically ignoring all Barega's surges until the final 400m. Literally looked like he was barely putting any effort in until the last 400m. Rare that a race looks so easy; like watching Mo Farah again.

The sideburn + fast eyeshade combo 😎

What a man 👏🏻

[@joejoejoe4577]

Well done Josh!

[@helensuzanne8785]

Don’t worry, it was on NRK as well.

Link to the shades plz

[@vincentvangogh8092]

flying like he is at 2 miles gotto be good for his mile running strength is there that was a 52.1 final 400m which is incredible for a 3000

[@mate3119]

Hail Jakob ❤

[@luckyspurs]

Anyone getting a bit bored of Jakob fans saying Jakob could have done the world championship golds and world records Kerr has been doing. It's starting to feel like Kerr's the one who's just doing great things rather than talking. Really happy for Josh.

[@7agneskickingbird7]

Josh Kerr isn’t talking lmfao

[@J.e.f.f.r.e.y]

Kerr is the man now. He mentioned British record so my guess is he will try to go for a super fast 1500 next and go after Jakob’s European record and show he is 1500 world champion with a devastating kick and also show he is faster than Jacob by running 3:27.

[@wss33]

Kerr is literally the one who started the trash talking 😂

[@michellevey9608]

[@vanderwilder695]

Kerr is like Lyles.. Getting humbled is in the doorstep and needed.. Jakob will see you soon Kerr😂

[@gordomctavish6599]

Amazing performance. But what is with his accent? Can barely tell he's a Scot!

[@loganmanderfield1162]

I would assume he has spent a substantial amount of time outside of Scotland.

[@jamesromano3288]

Who wants a Scottish accent papi ? 💩💩💩💩💩

[@awesomfog345]

Studied in the US, trained there and now lives in the US and his partner is American I believe

[@gordomctavish6599]

Give him the haggis test to be sure!

[@user-cz6mo5gh2p]

Josh will smoke Jakob?

[@stevedgolfer]

Olympics is the only title that matters .He beat nothing here .I cannot wait until the Olympics cos Jakob will destroy them all. State of Kerr too ...wolverine wannabe🤡

[@loganmanderfield1162]

The Olympics means the most, but this doesn't mean nothing.

[@veganpotterthevegan]

Cool, who's gonna win the men's 3000 at the Olympics?🤡

[@ImChrisGonzo1]

Nuguse and Kessler coming

[@loganmanderfield1162]

Why can't you just be happy for him?@@veganpotterthevegan
