Britain's Kerr smashes mile world record in London

Great Britain's Josh Kerr smashed the long-standing men's mile world record with a spectacular performance at the London Diamond League.Having announced his intention to break Hicham El Guerrouj's 27-year record in London back in March, Kerr delivered in emphatic fashion as he crossed the line in three minutes 42.66 seconds.Roared on by a sell-out crowd of 60,000 at London Stadium, the five-time global medallist bettered the Moroccan's mark - untouched since 1999, when Kerr was aged one - by nearly half a second.The 28-year-old became the seventh British athlete to claim the mile record, and first since Steve Cram in 1985.More to follow.
