Golden 5,000m kick gives Cole Hocker solace after being ‘robbed’ in 1500m

• American proves pedigree with devastating final surge

• USA also win women's and men's 4x100m relays on last day

At the Paris Olympics last year Cole Hocker proved over 1500m that he has one of the most devastating finishing kicks in track and field. Over 5,000m in Tokyo the American reinforced the message even more emphatically.

When the bell rang for the final lap Hocker was in 11th place, and close to 15 metres off the lead. But he quickly began picking off his rivals before timing his final surge to perfection to take gold in 12min 58.30sec, ahead of Belgium's Isaac Kimeli, with Jimmy Gressier adding bronze to his 10,000m gold.
