Kenyan Athlete Faith Kipyegon on Sunday broke another world record during a 1,500-meter race in Paris.

The athlete, who held a world record for the same race, achieved the fete after clocking 3:49.04.

According to World Athletics, however, the victory is subject to the usual ratification procedures.

"Faith Kipyegon breaks her own 1500m world record to finish off the Paris Diamond League in historic style," World Athletics announced.

A year ago, the athlete broke the same race record after finishing at a time of 3:49.11 in Monaco

At the Paris Diamond League, Kipyegon defeated competitors with Jessica Hull from Australia coming in second with a time of 3:50.83.

In an earlier interview with World Athletics, the athlete revealed that she was returning to the race with an injury but was determined to defend her title, which she did.

"I am really excited to be in Paris this year. You know, coming back with an injury and then running trials and being here in Paris, it is just really amazing," she stated.

"At first, when I got injured I was a little bit scared and you know when it comes to the Olympics and you have a little bit of irritation there and you are like 'yeah, it is the Olympic year and I want to go and defend my title, and now I have a little bit of problem but I really take it easy.

In 2023, Kipyegon etched her name in history books by shattering records in both the 1,500m and 5,000m.

During the Florence Diamond League in June, she clocked a time of 3.49.11, setting a new record in the 1,500m race, which she has superseded.

Continuing her dominance, Kipyegon achieved yet another milestone at the Paris Diamond League on June 9, triumphing in the 5,000 metres race with a record-breaking time of 14.05.20, earning her a noteworthy cash prize of Ksh1.5 million.
