A Team Australia spokesman said: “We are working closely with Glasgow 2026 to ensure the safety of our athletes, coaches and officials, as well as their family and friends, at the Games.”<\/p>\n

“Our regular Games security briefings are keeping us comprehensively informed on potential risks across the city, and we’re sharing applicable information with Team Members to ensure their awareness and safety.”<\/p>\n

Officials spoke to Hoare to check on his wellbeing and said there were no ongoing issues.<\/p>\n

New world record holder Josh Kerr<\/a> will start as favourite for gold but he will face competition from former 1500m world champion Jake Wightman and Neil Gourley, who has world and European indoor 1500m medals to his name.<\/p>\n

Australian track sensation Cameron Myers, external<\/span><\/a> – who ran the fastest 1500m by an under-21, in July – will also compete in the event.<\/p>\n
