The men's 800 metres at the 2022 World Athletics Championships was held at the Hayward Field in Eugene from 20 to 23 July 2022.

In the final, Slimane Moula came off the break looking to take the lead, tangling elbows with Peter Bol en route.

Korir poured it on through the final curve, passing Tual, then Kisasy, then 70 metres from home, Arop.

Dead last entering the turn, 17 year old Emmanuel Wanyonyi weaved his way through the crowd but didn't get to Arop in time to grab a medal.

[3] The event schedule, in local time (UTC−7), was as follows: The first 3 athletes in each heat (Q) and the next 6 fastest (q) qualify for the semi-finals.
