Moroccan steeplechase star Soufiane El Bakkali delivered another memorable performance on home soil Sunday, winning the men’s 3,000-meter steeplechase at the Mohammed VI International Athletics Meeting in Rabat in 7 minutes, 57.25 seconds.
A packed crowd at Rabat’s Olympic Stadium watched El Bakkali claim victory during the 17th edition of the meet, Morocco’s annual stop on the Diamond League circuit.
The event attracted several of the world’s leading track and field athletes, including Emmanuel Wanyonyi, Quincy Hall, and Yaroslava Mahuchikh, as Rabat continued to strengthen its status as a key stop on the international athletics calendar.
El Bakkali’s latest victory adds to a remarkable career that has established him as one of Morocco’s most accomplished athletes. The 29-year-old won Olympic gold at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, captured consecutive world titles at the 2022 World Athletics Championships and 2023 World Athletics Championships, and secured the Diamond League title in 2022.
His rise to the top of the discipline ended years of Kenyan dominance in the men’s 3,000-meter steeplechase and cemented his place among Morocco’s greatest track and field athletes.
