While it would be great for my fantasy team, statistics section at the diamond league site shows meet record as 143.68 by kaki from 2011.

1:43.68 is correct; Swiss Timing got the results wrong.

I am reasonably certain that Khadevis Robinson isn't ever going to win a championship medal, and equally likely he may never make a championship final; however, he is one of my favorite and most respected athletes -- seems like a pro in the best sense of the term. And I admire his consistency and longevity -- with this performance, he now has run 1:45.xx or faster for 15 consecutive seasons (with 9 of those 15 being sub-1:45).
