American Paul Chelimo, the 2016 silver medalist, gets bronze.

, finished ninth and 14th , respectively. Both were doubling back from the 10,000 last Friday, in which Fisher finished fifth and Kincaid 15th.

The early pace was solid through 2 kilometers, around 13:05 for the full distance. With conditions of 84 degrees and 78% humidity, nobody was likely to push hard too soon. Cheptegei took control of the race after the pace slowed in the third kilometer. He briefly moved to the front after passing 3,000 meters in 7:55.25, and although he slipped out of the lead after, he was the one setting the agenda.

Cheptegei avoided these potential pitfalls by moving to the front with 500 meters left and starting a long drive to dampen the kick of better sprinters like Chelimo. The Ugandan was never seriously threatened after. Behind him, Ahmed, who trains with the Bowerman Track Club in Portland, Oregon, moved up down the backstretch. With Cheptegei running wide in lane 1, Ahmed took the shortest path, hugging the rail off the final curve and moving from fourth to second over the last 100 meters. Chelimo and Kimeli struggled and strained as they battled for bronze, which Chelimo claimed with a dramatic dive over the line.
