BEIJING, Aug 14 (Reuters) - Wilson Kipketer, three-times world champion and the 800 metres world record holder, thinks Sudanese teenager Abubaker Kaki will win Olympic gold in the event, the one big medal that eluded the Dane.

"He has won every race he has been in. He has the confidence and the drive to win and he is top on my list if he brings other factors also to bear," Kenya-born Kipketer told Reuters.
