Mageean Through To World Final

Saturday night date with destiny

Ciara Mageean last night became the first Irish woman to make a World Championship 15-hundred metre final since Sonia O'Sullivan in 1997. 

The County Down athlete qualified automatically for tomorrow's final by finishing fifth in her semi final. 

That final will take place tomorrow evening. 


Alex Wright is Ireland's lone competitor in Doha this evening - he goes in the 20K walk tonight.
