Caster Semenya, the 2009 champion, was among the fastest that year, but had been affected by injury and an 11-month career break due to gender verification tests.Oscar Pistorius selected by South Africa for world championships. The Guardian (2011-08-08). Retrieved on 2011-08-23. Moroccan Halima Hachlaf and American champion Alysia Johnson Montano were highly ranked, while reigning Olympic and World silver medallist Janeth Jepkosgei was another prominent competitor. It took under 1:59 just to make the final. Led by defending champion Semenya, the three Russians all qualified, along with two Americans, returning silver medalist Jepkosgei and Kenia Sinclair, leaving previous bronze medalist Jenny Meadows as the fastest non-qualifier. In the final, Jepkosgei led through a fast 55.86-second first lap, followed by Sinclair and Alysia Johnson Montaño. On the backstretch, defending champion Semenya cruised past the field, taking the lead with about 180 metres to go. She continued to pull away, but not emphatically. Savinova had trailed the field and followed Semenya as she moved up, then kicked it into gear on the final straight, easing past Semenya without challenge. Montaño took a dive at the finish line but was unable to beat Jepkosgei for third place. On 28 July 2014, IAAF announced that 5th-place finisher Kostetskaya was sanctioned for doping after her biological passport had shown abnormalities. Her result was disqualified.http://www.iaaf.org/download/download?filename=6366f44a-1db1-49d1-bde3-b39c04bfc5fa.pdf&urlslug=List%20of%20athletes%20currently%20serving%20a%20period%20of%20ineligibility%20as%20a%20result%20of%20an%20Anti-Doping%20Rule%20Violation%20under%20IAAF%20Rules List of athletes currently serving a period of ineligibility as a result of an Anti-Doping Rule Violation under IAAF Rules as at: 28.07.14 28 July 2014 IAAF 31 July 2014 On February 10, 2017, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) officially disqualified Savinova's results backdated to July 2010.https://www.bbc.com/sport/athletics/38931007 London gold medallist Savinova banned BBC Sport When medals were reallocated, everyone moved up.
