Kenya's Nicholas Bett claims gold in the men's 400m hurdles final at the World Athletics Championships, but there is disappointment for USA's Michael Tinsley.

Kenya's Nicholas Bett has claimed gold in the men's 400m hurdles event at the World Athletics Championships in Beijing.

Bett ran a measured race to hold off his challengers in what was expected to be a tight final, finishing in a world-leading time this season of 47.79s.

Russia's Denis Kudryavtsev claimed a silver medal having qualified fastest at the Bird's Nest Stadium, while Jeffery Gibson of the Bahamas picked up bronze - both setting new national records.

USA's difficult day continued, however, as Michael Tinsley - a silver medallist in this event two years ago - blew a lead with an error-strewn final 200m.

The American hit a number of hurdles to eventually finish in last place, while compatriot Kerron Clement missed out on bronze by hundredths of a second.
