Meeting records by Azeddine Habz, Rai Benjamin, Marileidy Paulino and Grace Stark plus a thrilling 3000m steeplechase win by Faith Cherotich lit up the Meeting de Paris, this season&rsquo;s eighth Wanda Diamond League meeting, on Friday (20).
Racing in front of a home crowd, France&rsquo;s Habz was roared to a world-leading national record of 3:27.49 &ndash; a time that moves him to sixth on the world all-time list and improves on the meeting record of 3:28.38 that had been set by world record-holder Hicham El Guerrouj in 2001.
The men&rsquo;s 1500m might not have been a Diamond League discipline in Paris but Habz and his challengers made sure the event secured the spotlight. As the 31-year-old French athlete stormed over the finish line in record-breaking fashion, he was followed by Kenya&rsquo;s 18-year-old Phanuel Kipkosgei Koech who made history of his own by running a world U20 record of 3:27.72. Great Britain&rsquo;s George Mills clocked a PB of 3:28.36 for third place and he was followed by a host of athletes achieving personal best and national record-breaking performances, with the top six all dipping under 3:30 and the full 14-strong field running 3:32.25 or faster.
&ldquo;It's incredible, there's no other word for it,&rdquo; said Habz. &ldquo;I came to this Paris meeting with the goal of breaking the French record. I thought I'd do 3:28, that was my ambition. With these 10,000 people supporting me, I felt like I had wings.&rdquo;
USA&rsquo;s Benjamin secured a second 400m hurdles win following his success in Stockholm, setting a meeting record of 46.93 to beat the previous meeting record-holder, Abderrahman Samba.
Qatar&rsquo;s 2019 world bronze medallist Samba clocked 46.98 in Paris in 2018 and although he pushed Benjamin in the closing stages this time, he couldn&rsquo;t catch the Olympic champion as he strode over the finish line to take 0.05 off the meeting record. Samba followed in 47.09 &ndash; his fastest time since 2018 &ndash; and USA&rsquo;s Trevor Bassitt was third in 48.14.
USA&rsquo;s Stark scorched to equal fifth on the world 100m hurdles all-time list with her meeting record of 12.21 (0.7m/s). The Olympic fifth-place finisher took a tenth of a second off the PB she set in Eugene last year to leap from joint 13th to joint fifth in history, beating Nigeria&rsquo;s world record-holder Tobi Amusan in the process.
Amusan was runner-up in 12.24 and Jamaica&rsquo;s world indoor 60m hurdles bronze medallist Ackera Nugent was third in 12.30 &ndash; the fastest time ever recorded for a third-place finish.
Another meeting record fell in the women&rsquo;s 400m as Dominican Republic&rsquo;s Paulino opened her Diamond League season in style. She clocked 48.81, narrowly holding off world leader Salwa Eid Naser who finished fast and clocked 48.85. There was a third national record in as many races for Chile&rsquo;s Martina Weil as she dipped under 50 seconds for the first time with 49.83 for third place.
Kenya&rsquo;s Olympic and world bronze medallist Cherotich became the sixth-fastest women&rsquo;s 3000m steeplechaser in history as she held off Uganda&rsquo;s Tokyo Olympic champion Peruth Chemutai to win in 8:53.37.
<div><img style="max-width: 900px; width: 100%; display: block;" src="https://assets.aws.worldathletics.org/6855e7b7c440f958245976de.jpg" alt="Faith Cherotich wins the 3000m steeplechase in Paris" />

</div>
Cherotich might still be only 20 years of age but she raced with great experience, responding to Chemutai&rsquo;s challenge on the last lap and kicking away to win by a second &ndash; a world-leading 8:53.37 to 8:54.41. Ethiopia&rsquo;s world U20 champion Sembo Almayew was third in 9:01.22.
The meeting also featured a non-Diamond League men&rsquo;s 3000m steeplechase and that saw Ethiopia&rsquo;s Lamecha Girma make a winning return as he competed for the first time since the Paris Olympics, where he suffered a heavy fall. Back at the scene of his 7:52.11 world record from 2023, the multiple world and Olympic silver medallist clocked 8:07.01 for a clear victory.
Girma&rsquo;s compatriot Yomif Kejelcha took command of the 5000m and looked on for something special but, running solo, he couldn&rsquo;t maintain the pace. While he faded in the closing stages, he managed to hold off a charging Birhanu Balew of Bahrain and won in 12:47.84 to Balew&rsquo;s Asian record of 12:48.67. USA&rsquo;s Graham Blanks was third in 12:49.51 and Jimmy Gressier was fourth in a French record of 12:51.59.
Mohamed Attaoui won the 800m with a home straight attack on the inside. The Spanish Olympic finalist passed USA&rsquo;s world indoor champion Josh Hoey in the closing stages and pipped him to the line &ndash; 1:42.73 to 1:43.00. USA&rsquo;s Bryce Hoppel was third in 1:43.11.
USA&rsquo;s 2022 world silver medallist Trey Cunningham dipped to victory in the 110m hurdles, equalling his PB with 13.00 (1.1m/s) to gain the first Diamond League win of his career so far. After clocking 13.10 to finish third in his heat, he rebounded to win the final by 0.02 ahead of his compatriot Dylan Beard, whose performance was a PB. Jason Joseph equalled his Swiss record with 13.07 to finish third, ahead of Rachid Muratake in fourth and three-time world champion Grant Holloway in fifth.
USA&rsquo;s Anavia Battle maintained her win streak in the 200m, following her Diamond League victories in Xiamen, Shanghai/Keqiao and Rome with another in 22.27 (0.9m/s) &ndash; her quickest of the lot. Great Britain&rsquo;s Amy Hunt was second in 22.45.
Kenya&rsquo;s outdoor world leader Nelly Chepchirchir impressed again, winning the 1500m in 3:57.02 ahead of a fast-finishing Sarah Healy of Ireland who placed second in a PB of 3:57.15. The top 11 all finished inside four minutes.
Australia&rsquo;s two-time world indoor champion Nicola Olyslagers was another athlete who secured back-to-back wins, following her 2.01m clearance in Stockholm with 2.00m in Paris to prevail over Ukraine&rsquo;s world and Olympic champion Yaroslava Mahuchikh.
<div><img style="max-width: 900px; width: 100%; display: block;" src="https://assets.aws.worldathletics.org/6855e7d7c440f958245976e1.jpg" alt="Nicola Olyslagers celebrates her high jump performance in Paris" />

</div>
Back at the Stade Charlety, where Mahuchikh set a world record of 2.10m last year, the 24-year-old cleared a best of 1.97m this time to finish second on countback ahead of Australia&rsquo;s Eleanor Patterson.
India&rsquo;s Neeraj Chopra turned the tables on Germany&rsquo;s Julian Weber after their clash in Doha, the world champion getting the win this time thanks to an opening throw of 88.26m. Both athletes surpassed 90 metres in Doha, Weber getting the win there, but this time he had to settle for second with a best of 87.88m.
USA&rsquo;s Valarie Allman saved her best until last to clinch a last-gasp win in the discus. In third place on 64.88m as the final three took to the circle for their final attempts, the two-time Olympic champion watched as Yaime Perez and Jorinde van Klinken were unable to improve on their respective marks of 65.03m and 66.42m.&nbsp;
Allman managed 67.56m from the final throw of the competition to move into top spot and maintain a win streak that dates back to September 2023.&nbsp;
Jamaica&rsquo;s Jordan Scott secured his third Diamond League triple jump win of the season with a 17.27m leap, while two-time world champion Katie Moon pipped her US compatriot Sandi Morris to win the pole vault. Both athletes managed to clear 4.73m but Moon clinched the win on countback.

Meeting records by Azeddine Habz, Rai Benjamin, Marileidy Paulino and Grace Stark plus a thrilling 3000m steeplechase win by Faith Cherotich lit up the Meeting de Paris

Habz, Benjamin, Paulino and Stark storm to meeting records in Paris

Yaroslava Mahuchikh, Rai Benjamin and Grant Holloway are among the six reigning individual Olympic champions who will be returning to Paris to compete at the Meeting de Paris, this season&rsquo;s eighth Wanda Diamond League meeting, on Friday (20).
They will be joined by Marileidy Paulino,&nbsp;Valarie Allman&nbsp;and Soufiane El Bakkali, plus multiple other global gold medallists including Lamecha Girma, Nicola Olyslagers, Katie Moon, Neeraj Chopra and Yomif Kejelcha, looking to secure more success in the French capital.
Mahuchikh and Olyslagers will go head-to-head in the high jump, back in the city where Mahuchikh broke the world record and became an Olympic champion last year.
The first of those achievements came at the Stade Charlety, which again hosts this year&rsquo;s Diamond League meeting. By clearing 2.10m, the Ukrainian 23-year-old broke one of the longest-standing world records on the books, and she won Olympic gold at the Stade de France the following month, clearing 2.00m to win on countback ahead of Australia&rsquo;s Olyslagers. Australia&rsquo;s Eleanor Patterson, the 2022 world champion, gained bronze and all three Olympic medallists will renew their rivalry in Paris on Friday.
Mahuchikh is the world leader thanks to her 2.02m clearance in Doha in May, while two-time world indoor champion Olyslagers recently won in Stockholm with 2.01m. Their head-to-head record so far this year stands at 2-2, while Patterson finished between the two at the World Indoor Championships and the Diamond League meeting in Xiamen. Poland&rsquo;s Maria Zodzik will be looking to build on her third-place finish in Stockholm.
"I&rsquo;m obviously glad to be back in Paris, this is a very special place and a great memory to me," Mahuchikh said at the pre-event press conference. "I hope that something special is coming on Friday. I still have work to do until the World Championships, the most important competition this year. Every competition is a way to know what we should do better for the future."
A number of other big field event clashes are also on the cards. Germany&rsquo;s Julian Weber and India&rsquo;s Chopra both surpassed 90 metres in the javelin during the Diamond League meeting in Doha in May and they meet again in Paris. That Doha contest was just the seventh time in history that two men have thrown beyond 90 metres in the same competition, Weber improving his PB to 91.06m and world champion Chopra taking his PB to 90.23m.
USA&rsquo;s two-time Olympic champion Allman, who threw a North American record of 73.52m in Ramona in April and is unbeaten this year, headlines the discus field against Yaime Perez, who was runner-up to Allman in Xiamen and Rome, plus world champion Laulauga Tausaga and multiple global gold medallist Sandra Elkasevic.
The men&rsquo;s triple jump, which kicks off the evening&rsquo;s Diamond League action, features respective world indoor gold and bronze medallists Andy Diaz Hernandez and Hugues Fabrice Zango, plus joint Diamond League leader Jordan Scott, while the women&rsquo;s pole vault stars USA&rsquo;s two-time world champion Moon and two-time world indoor gold medallist Sandi Morris, who are separated by a single centimetre on season&rsquo;s bests, against home star Marie-Julie Bonnin, the world indoor champion.
<h2>Benjamin and Holloway headline hurdles</h2>
USA&rsquo;s Olympic 400m hurdles champion Benjamin continues his Diamond League campaign, five days on from his win in Stockholm and eight days after finishing second in the 300m hurdles in Oslo. Racing over one lap again in Paris, he doesn&rsquo;t have his fellow Olympic medallists Karsten Warholm and Alison dos Santos to contend with, but his competition will include Abderrahman Samba and Matheus Lima as Benjamin looks to build on his strong season start.
While Benjamin competes for the third time in just over a week, his US compatriot Holloway returns to the track for the first time since April. The three-time world 110m hurdles champion last lined up in Xiamen and Friday&rsquo;s meeting gives him the opportunity to test himself in a heat and final, up against the likes of his fellow US hurdlers Trey Cunningham and Freddie Crittenden, plus Switzerland&rsquo;s Jason Joseph and Japan&rsquo;s Rachid Muratake.
Grace Stark and Ackera Nugent are separated by just 0.01 in the 100m hurdles so far this season &ndash; 12.33 to 12.34 &ndash; and they renew their rivalry after finishing 1-2 in Stockholm. They will be joined by the next three athletes in that race: Nadine Visser, Devynne Charlton and Keni Harrison.
Dominican Republic&rsquo;s Paulino makes her Diamond League season debut in a 400m featuring USA&rsquo;s Isabella Whittaker, who won in Oslo and Stockholm, plus Dutch sprinter Lieke Klaver. The 200m will pit Anavia Battle &ndash; winner in Xiamen, Shanghai/Keqiao and Rome &ndash; against Dina Asher-Smith.
Rather than racing his specialism, Morocco&rsquo;s two-time Olympic 3000m steeplechase champion El Bakkali forms part of a 5000m field also featuring Kejelcha, Jacob Krop and Nico Young, who won in Oslo.
The men&rsquo;s 3000m steeplechase is not a Diamond League discipline in Paris this time but it is set to see Ethiopia&rsquo;s Lamecha Girma return to the scene of his 7:52.11 world record from 2023. The multiple global silver medallist has not raced since the Paris Olympics, where he suffered a heavy fall.
"After falling in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games final, my feelings were very hard. My head was hurting for a long time, even in training. It took three to four months for me to recover," said&nbsp;Girma. "I was scared at some point that I would not be able to run anymore. I took it slowly and I was improving progressively. I&rsquo;m proud to have come back from this shock."
In the women&rsquo;s steeplechase, Kenya&rsquo;s Olympic and world bronze medallist Faith Cherotich races world U20 champion Sembo Almayew and Tokyo Olympic champion Peruth Chemutai.
Racing on the track where Faith Kipyegon set a world record last year, the women&rsquo;s 1500m features outdoor world leader Nelly Chepchirchir, who ran 3:58.04 to win in Rabat, plus Rome winner Sarah Healy, Susan Ejore and Linden Hall.
Home favourite Gabriel Tual, who sits sixth on the world all-time list with the 1:41.61 he ran at the Stade Charlety last year, clashes with Mohamed Attaoui, Bryce Hoppel and Tshepiso Masalela in the 800m.

Sweden's Mondo Duplantis raised his own world pole vault record once again at the Wanda Diamond League meeting in Stockholm as he cleared 6.28m* at his first attempt in the 1912 Olympic Stadium on Sunday (15).
Breaking the world record is something the 25-year-old two-time Olympic champion had done on 11 previous occasions &ndash; but never before had he done so in his home stadium, and his joy was unbounded as he leapt from the pit, ripped off his shirt and pumped his fists amid the general uproar.
A first-time clearance of 6.00m had seen off the lingering challenge of his last rival on the day, Australia&rsquo;s Kurtis Marschall, but rather than targeting his own meeting record of 6.16m, Duplantis set the bar straight up to a height one centimetre beyond the 6.27m he cleared indoors at Clermont-Ferrand in February.
Inside the final 30 seconds of allotted time after waiting for what little breeze there was to drop, the centre of attention matched all expectations as he sailed over with only the faintest of contact with the bar. World record number 12, and counting.
&ldquo;I feel full to the brim right now,&rdquo; said Duplantis, who cleared 6.15m in Oslo on Thursday. &ldquo;I've got a lot of family here. The first time I jumped in this stadium when I was 11 years old, it was rainy and cold, and I jumped right under four metres &ndash; it was quite high for how young I was.&nbsp;
&ldquo;I'm just going to enjoy this, enjoy the moment right now. There's not much between me and 6.30m, technically. I'm just a perfect day away from it.&rdquo;
Within 15 minutes the home crowd had further cause for celebration as Sweden&rsquo;s Andreas Almgren set a European 5000m record of 12:44.27 after a grimly determined last lap timed at just over 58 seconds. The mark eclipsed the area record of 12:45.01 set in 2023 by Spain&rsquo;s Mohamed Katir, who is currently serving a suspension.
&ldquo;This is probably the most memorable night of my life and career so far,&rdquo; said Almgren, who finished more than 13 seconds clear of runner-up Kuma Girma. &ldquo;I wanted to give the spectators from my home city something to remember. When the pacemaker dropped off and Girma was unable to hold the pace, I decided to go for it &ndash; nobody remembers a coward.&rdquo;
The buzz of excitement received a final charge as Olympic champion Rai Benjamin of the United States won the concluding men&rsquo;s 400m hurdles in the seventh meeting record of a warm athlete-friendly evening, clocking 46.54 &ndash; the fastest time run so far this season.
<div><img style="max-width: 900px; width: 100%; display: block;" src="https://assets.aws.worldathletics.org/684f0b67790550050fc3e240.jpg" alt="Rai Benjamin on his way to a 400m hurdles win in Stockholm" />

</div>
Three days earlier in Oslo, Benjamin had misjudged the final barrier in a 300m hurdles race in which his perennial rival Karsten Warholm of Norway, the 400m hurdles world record-holder, had improved his own world best to 32.67.
This time it was Warholm whose performance dipped at the close as, after reaching the final straight in lane seven with a lead, he was unable to hold off the surging US athlete, or Brazil&rsquo;s 2022 world champion Alison dos Santos who was second in 46.68. Warholm finished third in 47.41.
Kenya&rsquo;s 20-year-old Olympic 800m champion Emmanuel Wanyonyi also produced a world-leading performance over two laps as he replicated his front-running effort in Oslo to win in 1:41.95, with Algeria&rsquo;s Olympic bronze medallist Djamel Sedjati second in 1:42.27 and Josh Hoey of the United States third in a personal best of 1:42.43.
Wanyonyi, however, was not among the meeting record-breakers as that distinction remains with Wilson Kipketer, who ran 1:41.73 in 1997 to equal what was then Sebastian Coe&rsquo;s world record.
Femke Bol, the Dutch world champion, had got the Diamond League programme off to a flying start on a benignly warm evening by setting the first of the meeting records as she won the 400m hurdles in 52.11, with the 2016 Olympic champion Dalilah Muhammad second in 52.91.
USA&rsquo;s Olympic champion Tara Davis-Woodhall earned the laurels against a stacked long jump field with a meeting record-equalling 7.05m from her opening effort, with Italy&rsquo;s Larissa Iapichino second on 6.90m and Jasmine Moore, the Paris 2024 bronze medallist in this event and the triple jump, third on 6.76m.
Grace Stark of the United States joined the meeting record club with a 100m hurdles time of 12.33 after overhauling The Bahamas&rsquo; fast-starting world indoor champion Devynne Charlton. Jamaica&rsquo;s world indoor bronze medallist Ackera Nugent was second in 12.37.
Three days after winning her opening 100m of the season in Oslo in 10.89, Saint Lucia's Olympic champion Julien Alfred set a meeting record of 10.75 (0.9m/s) in imperious fashion. Dina Asher-Smith, third in Oslo, was second this time in 10.93, with Marie-Josee Ta Lou-Smith third in 11.00.

</div>
Two-time Olympic silver medallist Nicola Olyslagers, who retained her world indoor title in March, won the high jump ahead of Olympic champion Yaroslava Mahuchikh, as Olyslagers managed a first-time clearance of 2.01m &ndash; a height Mahuchikh could not match.
Olympic 1500m bronze medallist Georgia Hunter-Bell, who was last in the 800m with 300 metres remaining, timed her final surge to perfection to take victory in 1:57.66 from world champion Mary Moraa, who clocked 1:57.83 ahead of Prudence Sekgodiso in 1:58.00.
The women&rsquo;s 3000m saw a gutsy win from Australia&rsquo;s Linden Hall, who held off the enduring challenge of Sarah Chelangat to win in a personal best of 8:30.01. The Ugandan clocked 8:31.27 ahead of Britain&rsquo;s 19-year-old European U20 cross country champion Innes FitzGerald, who was rewarded for a canny race with a huge personal best of 8:32.90.
Slovenia&rsquo;s Kristjan Ceh earned victory in the men&rsquo;s discus with 69.73m from Sweden&rsquo;s two-time Olympic champion Daniel Stahl, who came within 20cm of the winning mark through his final effort.
Cuba&rsquo;s Reynier Mena followed up his 200m victory in Oslo with another in a season&rsquo;s best of 20.05. Isabella Whittaker of the United States won the women&rsquo;s 400m in 49.78, with Norway&rsquo;s Henriette Jaeger second in 50.07.
The women&rsquo;s pole vault was held the day before the main meeting and was won by Sandi Morris with a clearance of 4.82m.

Mondo Duplantis raised his own world pole vault record once again at the Wanda Diamond League meeting in Stockholm as he cleared 6.28m at his first attempt

Duplantis breaks world pole vault record with 6.28m in Stockholm

Just three days after the latest instalment of the Wanda Diamond League in Oslo, the world&rsquo;s best athletes will head to Stockholm&rsquo;s Bauhaus Galan for the next fixture in the series on Sunday (15).
Seven individual gold medallists from the Paris 2024 Olympics &ndash; four of whom were in action in Oslo on Thursday &ndash; headline the action in the Swedish city. And, as was the case in Oslo, the three-way clash between the Olympic medallists in the men&rsquo;s 400m hurdles has top billing.
Karsten Warholm, Rai Benjamin and Alison dos Santos have, between them, won the past six global titles in the 400m hurdles and produced the 18 fastest times in history, elevating the discipline to new heights. Sunday&rsquo;s race will be the first time the trio has clashed in the 400m hurdles since the Paris Olympics, where they occupied the top three spots.
They also filled the top three spots in the 300m hurdles in Oslo on Thursday when Warholm set a world best of 32.67 to finish ahead of Benjamin and Dos Santos.
Warholm, the world record-holder and three-time world champion, also heads to Stockholm as the world leader in the 400m hurdles following his 47.28 run at the Diamond League meeting in Keqiao last month.
Benjamin, the gold medallist in Paris, had been leading in Oslo up until the final barrier but clipped the hurdle and lost some momentum, still finishing in a US record of 33.22.
Dos Santos, the 2022 world champion, set the meeting record of 46.80 in Stockholm three years ago and is undefeated in the 400m hurdles this year, having won in Kingston, Miami and Philadelphia.
The rematch theme will also be strong in the men&rsquo;s 800m as it contains four of the top six finishers from the Paris final and five of the top six finishers from Oslo on Thursday.
Emmanuel Wanyonyi, the winner of both races, will start as the favourite following his season&rsquo;s best of 1:42.78 in the Norwegian capital. Algeria&rsquo;s Djamel Sedjati, who was third in both Paris and Oslo, has fond memories of Stockholm, having won here last year in 1:43.23. European champion Gabriel Tual, two-time Commonwealth champion Wyclife Kinyamal, and US duo Josh Hoey and Bryce Hoppel &ndash; winners of the past two world indoor titles &ndash; are also in the loaded field.
In the women&rsquo;s event, world indoor champion Prudence Sekgodiso faces world champion Mary Moraa, alongside Audrey Werro, who recently set a Swiss record of 1:57.25, and Olympic 1500m bronze medallist Georgia Hunter Bell.
The home crowd will have high expectations for Mondo Duplantis, who has won the pole vault at this meeting for the past five years. The multiple world and Olympic champion won in Oslo on Thursday with a world-leading 6.15m &ndash; just one centimetre shy of the Stockholm meeting record he set in 2022.
The world record-holder will be up against the likes of Emmanouil Karalis, Sam Kendricks, Kurtis Marschall, Ernest John Obiena and Menno Vloon.
Julien Alfred is another Stockholm-bound Olympic champion who won in Oslo earlier this week. The sprinter from St Lucia laid down a marker of 10.89 in Oslo in what was her first 100m of the year, so she&rsquo;ll look to improve on that on Sunday when she takes on Marie-Josee Ta Lou-Smith and Dina Asher-Smith, the athletes who finished second and third in Oslo.
Three other Olympic champions are in action in the field events.
Olympic long jump champion Tara Davis-Woodhall makes her 2025 Diamond League debut in a loaded field that also includes world champion Ivana Spanovic, two-time world champion Malaika Mihambo, world indoor champion Claire Bryant, European indoor champion Larissa Iapichino, world indoor silver medallist Annik Kalin and Olympic bronze medallist Jasmine Moore.
All three Olympic medallists will clash in the women&rsquo;s high jump as Yaroslava Mahuchikh takes on world indoor champion Nicola Olyslagers and 2022 world champion Eleanor Patterson.
Olympic discus champion Roje Stona will contest just the second Diamond League meeting of his career. The Jamaican &ndash; who opened his season with a 67.19m third-place finish in Hengelo earlier this week &ndash; will take on 2022 world champion Kristjan Ceh, who last month threw beyond 72 metres in three different cities within the space of a week.
Two-time world champion Daniel Stahl and Olympic bronze medallist Matt Denny add further quality to the field.
<h2>Bol returns</h2>
World champion Femke Bol will return to the scene of her first ever Diamond League win. The Dutch 400m hurdler first won here back in 2020 and has gone on to rack up a string of 37 consecutive victories in invitational races, 25 of which have been in the Diamond League.
She has won in Stockholm four times to date and holds the meeting record of 52.27, set in 2022. So far this year, she has won in Rabat (52.46) and Hengelo (52.51) and she&rsquo;ll no doubt be keen to finish well inside 53 seconds again on Sunday.
She&rsquo;ll face 2016 Olympic champion Dalilah Muhammad, Panama&rsquo;s Gianna Woodruff and world-leading heptathlete Anna Hall.
Following their thrilling finish in Oslo, USA&rsquo;s Isabella Whittaker and Norway&rsquo;s Henriette Jaeger clash again in the 400m flat. Whittaker came from behind to win on that occasion as both women set outdoor PBs, 49.58 to 49.62. World indoor champion Amber Anning, Ireland&rsquo;s Rhasidat Adeleke and Lieke Klaver of the Netherlands &ndash; who were third, fourth and fifth respectively in Oslo &ndash; are also entered.
Ackera Nugent, the fastest woman in the world last year, is part of a 100m hurdles field that also includes former world record-holder Kendra Harrison, two-time world indoor champion Devynne Charlton and USA&rsquo;s Grace Stark.
Having won the 200m in Oslo ahead of Canada&rsquo;s Andre de Grasse and Liberia&rsquo;s Joseph Fahnbulleh, Cuba&rsquo;s Reynier Mena will try to achieve the feat again in Stockholm.
Elsewhere, Kuma Girma &ndash; who clocked a PB of 12:46.41 in Oslo &ndash; takes on Andreas Almgren in the men&rsquo;s 5000m. The women&rsquo;s pole vault, meanwhile, features Sandi Morris, Angelica Moser and Tina Sutej.

Just three days after the latest instalment of the Wanda Diamond League in Oslo, the world’s best athletes will head to Stockholm’s Bauhaus Galan for the next fixture in the series on Sunday (15).

Global champions Duplantis, Warholm and Bol return to Stockholm

Karsten Warholm gave the packed crowd at the 60th edition of the Bislett Games in Oslo the performance they craved in the latest&nbsp;Wanda Diamond League&nbsp;meeting as he set a 300m hurdles world best of 32.67, becoming the first athlete to better 33 seconds in this event.
It was the final event of a programme that had seen Mondo Duplantis set two meeting records in the men&rsquo;s pole vault, Kenya&rsquo;s Faith Cherotich set a women&rsquo;s 3000m steeplechase meeting record and world lead of 9:02.60 and Emmanuel Wanyonyi, Isaac Nader and Nico Young earn stirring victories in, respectively, the men&rsquo;s 800m, mile and 5000m.
Racing against the US athlete who succeeded him as Olympic 400m hurdles champion last year, Rai Benjamin, Warholm offered ominous evidence of his 2025 prospects. The 29-year-old Norwegian athlete improved significantly upon the time of 33.05 he set at the Diamond League meeting in Xiamen earlier this year.
Benjamin, two lanes inside his rival in lane five, appeared to have the race in his grasp as he moved past Warholm into the final straight, but he faltered over the final 50 metres as the home athlete drove home remorselessly.
Benjamin nevertheless clocked a personal best of 33.22 in second place ahead of Brazil&rsquo;s 2022 world 400m hurdles champion Alison dos Santos, who recorded 33.38.
It was the first time that Warholm, Benjamin and Dos Santos had all met in this discipline; they now move on to the 400m hurdles at Sunday&rsquo;s Diamond League meeting in Stockholm.
&ldquo;The race went well although I was rather worried with how much Rai (Benjamin) was closing on me,&rdquo; Warholm said. &ldquo;But I knew I could push on over the last hurdle to home. I usually fade at the end of the 400 so the 300 suits me to some degree but I will be back strong in the 400 on Sunday.&rdquo;
A few minutes earlier, Duplantis earned his customary victory in the men&rsquo;s pole vault &ndash; taking his fifth Bislett Games title &ndash; before going on to set successive meeting records of 6.03m and 6.15m.
Sweden&rsquo;s double Olympic champion, unbeaten since the 2023 Monaco Diamond League meeting, thus improved his outdoor world lead of 6.11m set at the Shanghai Diamond League meeting &ndash; having set his 11th world record earlier his year by clearing 6.27m indoors.
Cherotich ran a coolly judged race, moving clear over the final lap to better the mark of 9:05.08 she set in winning at the Doha Diamond League ahead of Bahrain&rsquo;s Winfred Yavi, who also improved her season&rsquo;s best as she clocked 9:02.76.
Kenya&rsquo;s Wanyonyi, the Olympic 800m champion, earned a season&rsquo;s best of 1:42.78 under extreme pressure. Five metres clear at the bell, the 20-year-old began to look a touch desperate as the field closed on him at the start of the finishing straight.
Yet he would not, could not, be passed and held on to register the second fastest time of the season behind the 1.42.70 set by Botswana&rsquo;s Tshepiso Masalela at last month&rsquo;s Rabat Diamond League meeting, with Spain&rsquo;s Mohamed Attaoui second in 1:42.90 and Algeria&rsquo;s Olympic bronze medallist Djamel Sedjati third in 1:43.06.
Isaac Nader set a Portuguese record of 3:48.25 to win the first Dream Mile to be held in Oslo since 2022, finishing a couple of metres clear of a wide wave of talent from which Australia&rsquo;s 19-year-old Cameron Myers emerged to take second place in a personal best of 3:48.87.
Nico Young set a US outdoor 5000m record of 12:45.27 after a monumental race that produced eight other personal bests including two other national records.
While the touted joust at Joshua Cheptegei&rsquo;s 2020 world record of 12:35.36 did not come to pass, a hugely accomplished field produced a hugely competitive spectacle which ended with the 22-year-old moving past the Briton who led at the bell, George Mills, and pushing on for victory ahead of Ethiopians Biniam Mehary and Kuma Girma, who clocked personal bests of 12:45.93 and 12:46.41 respectively.
Mills was rewarded for his true grit with a British record of 12:46.59, eclipsing Mo Farah&rsquo;s 2011 mark of 12:53.11. Switzerland&rsquo;s Dominic Lobalu also set a national record, placing 10th in 12:50.87.
The first 100m of the season for Olympic champion Julien Alfred underlined her enduring power as, despite being beaten out of the blocks by the Ivory Coast&rsquo;s Marie-Josee Ta Lou-Smith, she won in 10.89, slowing over the final few metres.
Ta Lou-Smith was second in 11.00, with Britain&rsquo;s Dina Asher-Smith third in 11.08.
Isabella Whittaker of the United States won the women&rsquo;s 400m in 49.58 ahead of home runner Henriette Jaeger in a national record of 49.62 and Britain&rsquo;s Amber Anning, who clocked 50.24.
Dalilah Muhammad of the United States won the women&rsquo;s 400m hurdles in 53.34 from Slovakia&rsquo;s Emma Zapletalova (54.44). US heptathlete Anna Hall was going well until falling at the last hurdle &ndash; happily without serious harm.
Leyanis Perez Hernandez of Cuba managed only two scoring efforts in the women&rsquo;s triple jump but the second of them, 14.72m, was enough for victory ahead of Jamaica&rsquo;s Olympic silver medallist Shanieka Ricketts (14.57m).
The men&rsquo;s triple jump saw Jamaica&rsquo;s Jordan Scott earn a notable win over Portugal&rsquo;s 2021 Olympic champion Pedro Pichardo thanks to an opening personal best of 17.34m, with the latter athlete managing 17.06m.
Cuba&rsquo;s Reynier Mena won the men&rsquo;s 200m in 20.20 from Timothe Mumenthaler of Switzerland in a personal best of 20.27, with Canada&rsquo;s Tokyo 2020 champion Andre de Grasse third in 20.33.
Victory in the women&rsquo;s javelin went to Japan&rsquo;s Olympic champion Haruka Kitaguchi with a fifth-round best of 64.63m that took her past Serbia&rsquo;s Adriana Vilagos (63.78m).

Karsten Warholm gave the packed crowd at the Bislett Games the performance they craved as he set a 300m hurdles world best of 32.67

Warholm breaks world 300m hurdles best in Oslo

A clash between Karsten Warholm, Rai Benjamin and Alison dos Santos in the 300m hurdles, a world record attempt in the men&rsquo;s 5000m, a 100m season opener for Julien Alfred and a pole vault contest starring world record-holder Mondo Duplantis are among the highlights set for the Bislett Games, a Wanda Diamond League meeting, in Oslo on Thursday (12).
The programme, which includes an additional afternoon of action on Wednesday (11), features nine Olympic champions from the Paris 2024 Games &ndash; Benjamin, Alfred and Duplantis joined in Norway&rsquo;s capital by Ethan Katzberg, Haruka Kitaguchi, Thea LaFond, Markus Rooth, Emmanuel Wanyonyi and Winfred Yavi.
The three fastest men&rsquo;s 400m hurdlers in history will race each other twice within three days when they compete in Oslo and the Diamond League meeting in Stockholm on Sunday (15). First up is the 300m hurdles in Oslo and it will be the first time that Warholm, Benjamin and Dos Santos have all clashed in the discipline, following its introduction as an official event earlier this year.
As well as being the world 400m hurdles record-holder and a three-time world champion, home favourite Warholm holds the world best for the 300m hurdles having improved his own global mark to 33.05 at the Diamond League season opener in Xiamen in April.
USA&rsquo;s Benjamin claimed the Olympic 400m hurdles title ahead of Warholm and Dos Santos in Paris last year, while Brazil&rsquo;s Dos Santos claimed the 2022 world title. Between them, the trio own the 18 fastest performances of all time in the 400m hurdles.
&ldquo;It will be a fantastic weekend with 300m hurdles in Oslo on Thursday and then 400m hurdles in Stockholm on Sunday, both with the three fastest of all time,&rdquo; said Benjamin.
&ldquo;This is the first time I will compete in these two historic competitions, which makes it even more interesting. What more could you want?&rdquo;
Fast times are also expected in the 5000m &ndash; a race that has been billed as a world record attempt. Last year Hagos Gebrhiwet came close to achieving the 72nd world record to be set at the Bislett Stadium as he clocked 12:36.73, just 1.37 seconds shy of Joshua Cheptegei&rsquo;s global mark of 12:35.36 from 2020.&nbsp;
Now he returns to try again, joined by his compatriot Yomif Kejelcha who ran 12.38.95 last year &ndash; making it the first time that two men had ever broken 12:40 in the same race. Further strengthening the field are Kenya&rsquo;s Jacob Krop and Nicholas Kipkorir, Ethiopia&rsquo;s Kuma Girma and Biniam Mehary, Spain&rsquo;s Thierry Ndikumwenayo and Switzerland&rsquo;s Dominic Lobalu.
The world record is always under threat whenever Duplantis competes. The Swedish pole vault star has improved the global mark 11 times in his career so far, most recently with a 6.27m clearance in Clermont-Ferrand in February, and he will be looking to build on the outdoor world lead of 6.11m he achieved in Shanghai/Keqiao at the start of May. The two-time Olympic and world champion competes along with five other six-metre-plus vaulters: his fellow Paris Olympic medallists Sam Kendricks and Emmanouil Karalis, plus Ernest John Obiena, Renaud Lavillenie and Sondre Guttormsen.
A record could also fall in the 800m, as three of the six fastest runners in history take to the start line. Kenya&rsquo;s Olympic champion Wanyonyi, Algeria&rsquo;s Djamel Sedjati and Gabriel Tual of France have all dipped under 1:42 and could target David Rudisha&rsquo;s stadium record of 1:42.04 set in 2010.
The mile features Kenya&rsquo;s 2019 world champion Timothy Cheruiyot, who ran 3:29.75 but was narrowly beaten in the 1500m in Rome, plus the in-form Robert Farken and Samuel Pihlstrom, Oliver Hoare, Niels Laros and world bronze medallist Narve Gilje Nordas.
Saint Lucia&rsquo;s Olympic champion Alfred makes her 100m season debut in Oslo. Unbeaten so far this year, she faces world indoor medallists Zaynab Dosso and Patrizia van der Weken, plus Dina Asher-Smith and Marie-Josee Ta Lou-Smith.
Poland&rsquo;s world and Olympic medallist Natalia Bukowiecka leads the 400m field and she takes on Rhasidat Adeleke, Sada Williams, Lieke Klaver and Henriette J&aelig;ger, while Andre De Grasse and Aaron Brown clash with Kyree King, Joseph Fahnbulleh and Reynier Mena in the 200m.
Kenya&rsquo;s Olympic bronze medallist Faith Cherotich and Bahrain&rsquo;s Olympic champion Winfred Yavi have posted the two fastest 3000m steeplechase times in the world so far this year and they both line up in Oslo, joined by 2022 world champion Norah Jeruto. USA&rsquo;s multiple Olympic and world gold medallist Dalilah Muhammad leads the entries for the 400m hurdles, which will also feature her compatriot Anna Hall, fresh from a 7032-point heptathlon in G&ouml;tzis.
The women&rsquo;s triple jump features all six medallists from the Paris Olympics and Nanjing World Indoor Championships in LaFond, Shanieka Ricketts, Jasmine Moore, Leyanis Perez Hernandez, Liadagmis Povea and Ana Peleteiro-Compaore. In the men&rsquo;s event, Tokyo Olympic gold and Paris silver medallist Pedro Pichardo takes on world champion Hugues Fabrice Zango and world silver medallist Lazaro Martinez, while the top two at the Paris Olympics &ndash; Japan&rsquo;s champion Kitaguchi and South Africa&rsquo;s silver medallist Jo-Ane du Plessis &ndash; renew their rivalry in the javelin.
As part of a series of combined events clashes, Olympic decathlon champion Rooth will compete against his Norwegian compatriot Sander Skotheim, who recently set a national record to win in G&ouml;tzis, as well as Switzerland&rsquo;s Simon Ehammer.
The full Paris Olympic podium of Katzberg, Bence Halasz and Mykhaylo Kokhan will compete against Poland&rsquo;s Pawel Fajdek and Wojciech Nowicki in the hammer during the extra evening of action on Wednesday.

A 300m hurdles clash, a world record attempt in the men’s 5000m and a 100m season opener for Julien Alfred are among the highlights set for the Bislett Games

Fierce clashes and record attempts on the cards for Oslo

Kenya&rsquo;s Beatrice Chebet continued her remarkable run of form by storming to the second-fastest women&rsquo;s 5000m in history at the Golden Gala Pietro Mennea, the fifth Wanda Diamond League meeting of the season, in Rome on Friday (6).
Less than two weeks on from a performance in Rabat that moved her to second on the world 3000m all-time list, the 25-year-old repeated the feat over 5000m &ndash; running a national record of 14:03.69 to miss the world record by just three seconds.
Only Ethiopia&rsquo;s Gudaf Tsegay, with her world record of 14:00.21 set in Eugene in 2023, has ever gone faster. Chebet &ndash; who was previously No.3 all time with the 14:05.92 she ran to finish runner-up to Tsegay in that race in Eugene, has jumped ahead of her compatriot Faith Kipyegon, the former world record-holder (14:05.20), with this latest performance.
Chebet won the race by more than 15 seconds. Two-time world indoor champion Freweyni Hailu finished second in a PB of 14:19.33 and Nadia Battocletti delighted the home crowd with an Italian record of 14:23.15 for third place. Birke Haylom was fourth in 14:24.20 and Tsegay finished fifth on this occasion, clocking 14:24.86.
&ldquo;I just said: &lsquo;Let&rsquo;s run my own race today.&rsquo; I was planning to run 14:15, but I felt like my body was moving and I decided to go,&rdquo; said Chebet, the Olympic 5000m and 10,000m champion who already has two world records on her CV, in the 10,000m and road 5km.
&ldquo;I see that my body is in good shape, and I am capable of the world record, so now I am going home and will prepare for it. Everything is possible &ndash; if I get someone who will push me up to 3000m, it is possible.&rdquo;
Chebet followed closely as the pacemakers ran right on the planned meeting record (14:12.59) pace &ndash; reaching 1000m in 2:50.06 and 2000m in 5:41.45. She led a breakaway group of five at 3000m &ndash; passed in 8:32.20 &ndash; and was well in control.&nbsp;
She kicked with four laps to go and picked up the pace &ndash; running 2:46 for the fourth kilometre and 2:44 for the fifth.
&ldquo;Today, I wanted to try and see how fast I can go when I push a lot,&rdquo; she added. &ldquo;Soon, I am going for a time under 14 (minutes).
&ldquo;I can say I also helped the others to achieve their personal bests and national records today. It helped a lot. I have to congratulate the others as well, because without them, it would not be possible to run that race.&rdquo;
It was a race of record depth, with the top 14 all finishing under 14:50.
The men&rsquo;s 1500m also featured great depth, with Azeddine Habz and Timothy Cheruiyot leading the way to push each other to the two fastest 1500m times in the world so far this season.
Kenya&rsquo;s Cheruiyot, the 2019 world champion, was narrowly ahead as they hit the home straight, but France&rsquo;s Habz launched an attack and saved just enough for a final surge to deny Cheruiyot by just 0.03 &ndash; 3:29.72 to 3:29.75.
There were lifetime best performances all the way down the field, Morocco&rsquo;s Anass Essayi finishing third in a big PB of 3:30.74, and Germany&rsquo;s Robert Farken and Sweden&rsquo;s Samuel Pihlstrom setting respective national records of 3:30.80 and 3:30.87 in fourth and fifth. All 16 members of the field finished inside 3:33.
<h2>Bromell makes a statement</h2>
USA&rsquo;s Trayvon Bromell also achieved a world lead to win the 100m, running his fastest time since 2022. The 2016 world indoor 60m champion and two-time world 100m bronze medallist clocked 9.84 (1.1m/s) for a comfortable victory ahead of Emmanuel Eseme (9.99).

</div>
The men&rsquo;s 400m was much closer &ndash; South Africa&rsquo;s world leader Zakithi Nene and Olympic champion Quincy Hall battling all the way to the line before Hall dipped to deny his rival by 0.01 with a winning time of 44.22.
The gap between the top two was just thousandths in the men&rsquo;s 110m hurdles. Switzerland&rsquo;s Jason Joseph flew off the final hurdle to triumph, holding off USA&rsquo;s world leader Cordell Tinch, who hit the final barrier, and they both crossed the finish line in 13.14.
Jamaica&rsquo;s world finalist Andrenette Knight claimed a clear win in the 400m hurdles, clocking 53.67 ahead of Italy&rsquo;s Ayomide Folorunso in 54.21, while USA&rsquo;s Anavia Battle won the 200m in 22.53 (0.8m/s) ahead of Great Britain&rsquo;s Amy Hunt (22.67).
The women&rsquo;s 1500m got off to a blistering start but the pace eased off and it turned into a tactical battle, Ireland&rsquo;s Sarah Healy coming through for the win in 3:59.17 ahead of Australia&rsquo;s Sarah Billings and Abbey Caldwell as the top five finished inside four minutes.
<h2>Allman throws meeting record, Adcock saves best leap for last</h2>
Two-time Olympic champion Valarie Allman maintained her win streak in the discus, throwing a meeting record of 69.21m to triumph by more than two-and-a-half metres. Cuba&rsquo;s 2019 world champion Yaime Perez was runner-up with 66.63m &ndash; those top two marks both coming in the fifth round.
New Zealand&rsquo;s Tom Walsh clinched his first win since claiming his third world indoor shot put title in Nanjing in March. He threw 21.89m in the first round and that remained the best of the contest &ndash; securing him top spot ahead of Italy&rsquo;s Zane Weir (21.67m) and Jamaica&rsquo;s Rajindra Campbell (21.64m).
There was an exciting end to the men&rsquo;s long jump. Home favourite Mattia Furlani, the world indoor champion, only secured a spot in the final three at the last opportunity &ndash; jumping 8.07m in the fifth round. That matched the best mark achieved at that stage by Australia&rsquo;s Liam Adcock as they trailed Olympic champion Miltiadis Tentoglou by three centimetres, and while Tentoglou couldn&rsquo;t improve in the final round, Furlani launched himself ahead with a leap of 8.13m. Adcock wasn&rsquo;t done, though, and with the last jump of the competition he set a PB of 8.34m for victory.
Sandi Morris won the pole vault with her third-time clearance of 4.75m before also managing 4.80m on her third and final attempt, while her fellow two-time world indoor gold medallist Woo Sanghyeok won the high jump with a first-time clearance of 2.32m.
Jamaica&rsquo;s Olympic and two-time world silver medallist Shanieka Ricketts topped a triple jump contest featuring multiple global medallists, leaping 14.64m to beat world indoor champion Leyanis Perez (14.46m) and Olympic champion Thea LaFond (14.30m).

Kenya’s Beatrice Chebet continued her remarkable run of form by storming to the second-fastest women’s 5000m in history at the Golden Gala Pietro Mennea

Chebet goes No.2 all time with 14:03.69 5000m in Rome

World record-holder Gudaf Tsegay and Olympic champion Beatrice Chebet will go head-to-head over 5000m at the Golden Gala Pietro Mennea in a race that looks set to provide one of the highlights of the Wanda Diamond League meeting in Rome on Friday (6).
Chebet is one of six Olympic champions who&rsquo;ll be in action in the Italian capital, and the Kenyan heads there in sensational form. At the recent Diamond League meeting in Rabat, she cruised to an 8:11.56 African record over 3000m, going to second on the world all-time list.
Prior to that, Chebet had won over 5000m in Xiamen, beating Tsegay by one second. But Tsegay is the last woman to beat Chebet in a Diamond League race, doing so at the Diamond League Final in Eugene in 2023 and with a world record to boot (14:00.21).
Chebet finished second on that occasion in a PB of 14:05.92, but her recent form suggests it&rsquo;s ready for revision. The meeting record of 14:12.59 is a slightly easier &ndash; but still lofty &ndash; target.
Two-time world indoor champion Freweyni Hailu is also entered, as is home favourite Nadia Battocletti, the Olympic 10,000m silver medallist, along with USA&rsquo;s Karissa Schweizer.
Less than a week after running a world-leading 43.76 in Nairobi, all eyes will be on Zakithi Nene in the men&rsquo;s 400m. The South African will take on Olympic champion Quincy Hall, 2024 world indoor champion Alexander Doom, European silver medallist Charlie Dobson and Olympic relay silver medallist Busang Collen Kebinatshipi of Botswana.
In the women&rsquo;s discus, two-time Olympic champion Valarie Allman takes on the winners of the past four world titles: Laulauga Tausaga, Feng Bin, Yaime Perez and Sandra Elkasevic.
Meanwhile in the women&rsquo;s triple jump, the three medallists from the Olympic Games &ndash; Thea Lafond, Shanieka Ricketts and Jasmine Moore &ndash; take on the podium finishers from the World Indoor Championships: Leyanis Perez Hernandez, Liadagmis Povea and Ana Peleteiro-Compaore.
All three world indoor medallists will be present in the men&rsquo;s high jump as Woo Sanghyeok takes on Olympic champion Hamish Kerr and Jamaica&rsquo;s Raymond Richards, as well as world champion Gianmarco Tamberi.
Another leading Italian jumper, world indoor champion Mattia Furlani, will take on Olympic champion Miltiadis Tentoglou in the men&rsquo;s long jump. 2022 world indoor silver medallist Thobias Montler, 2024 world indoor heptathlon champion Simon Ehammer and in-form Australian Liam Adcock are also in the high-quality line-up.
Almost one year to the day since he won European gold in front of a home crowd, Italy&rsquo;s Leonardo Fabbri will be hoping for another victorious display at the Golden Gala in the same Stadio Olimpico. The world silver medallist won&rsquo;t have it easy, though, as he takes on world indoor champion Tom Walsh, two-time world champion Joe Kovacs, Olympic bronze medallist Rajindra Campbell, world indoor silver medallist Roger Steen, world indoor bronze medallist Adrian Piperi and world leader Payton Otterdahl.
Three weeks after stepping up in distance to win the 5000m at the Diamond League meeting in Doha, Kenya&rsquo;s Reynold Cheruiyot moves back down to his specialist distance, the 1500m. The 2022 world U20 champion takes on 2019 world champion Timothy Cheruiyot, African champion Brian Komen, European indoor silver medallist Azeddine Habz and Commonwealth champion Ollie Hoare.
In the women&rsquo;s event, Ethiopia&rsquo;s Birke Haylom takes on compatriot Hirut Meshesha, Kenya&rsquo;s Susan Ejore and Ireland&rsquo;s European indoor 3000m champion Sarah Healy.
World leader Cordell Tinch leads a 110m hurdles field that includes Olympic silver medallist Daniel Roberts, European champion Lorenzo Simonelli, world indoor silver medallist Wilhem Belocian and Spain&rsquo;s Enrique Llopis.
Elsewhere in the sprints, 2022 Fred Kerley goes in the men&rsquo;s 100m while fellow US sprinter Anavia Battle leads the women&rsquo;s 200m.
In the women&rsquo;s pole vault, European champion Angelica Moser takes on USA&rsquo;s Sandi Morris, world indoor silver medallist Tina Sutej and Italy&rsquo;s Roberta Bruni.

World record-holder Gudaf Tsegay and Olympic champion Beatrice Chebet will go head-to-head over 5000m at the Golden Gala Pietro Mennea

Chebet and Tsegay renew rivalry in Rome

Nine months on from becoming the Olympic 5000m and 10,000m champion in Paris, Kenya&rsquo;s Beatrice Chebet dropped down in distance to become the second-fastest women&rsquo;s 3000m runner of all time at the Wanda Diamond League meeting in Rabat on Sunday (25).
The 25-year-old won a race against the pace lights set for 8:15.00, kicking on the final lap to cross the finish line in 8:11.56 &ndash; an African record that moves her to No.2 on the world all-time list. Only China&rsquo;s Wang Junxia with her world record of 8:06.11 from 1993 has ever gone faster.
Chebet, world record-holder for the 10,000m and road 5km, tucked herself behind the two pacemakers from the start. With two minutes on the clock, a lead group of three behind the pacemakers had already been established, but Chebet didn&rsquo;t have company for long.
After Winnie Nanyondo took them through 1000m in 2:44.47, the pace dropped ever so slightly and Chebet reached 2000m in 5:30.51. She was running at the back of the pace lights with two laps to go but was right on the rhythm at the bell. Kicking again, Chebet left the lights behind and powered over the finish line in 8:11.56.
She won by more than 14 seconds but showing the great standard, Nadia Battocletti&rsquo;s 8:26.27 for second place was still an Italian record, while Ireland&rsquo;s Sarah Healy set a PB of 8:27.02 to finish third.
&ldquo;I am so happy,&rdquo; said Chebet. &ldquo;I was not preparing for a world record attempt, I just came to run my personal best and that&rsquo;s what I did. I just have to believe in myself and then maybe after some months or years, that world record will come.&nbsp;
&ldquo;After a few laps I realised I was on my own, but I kept pushing myself to show everyone what I can do. I really like this distance &ndash; it&rsquo;s nothing like a 5000m or 10,000m, it&rsquo;s something completely different and I am also good at it.&rdquo;
Soufiane El Bakkali was another of the six Olympic champions from Paris in action and he received great home support from the Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athletisme de Rabat crowd.
While the two-time world and Olympic champion&rsquo;s victory in the 3000m steeplechase never looked under threat, the race did finish in thrilling style. As El Bakkali secured the win in a world lead of 8:00.70, European fourth-place finisher Frederik Ruppert chased him over the finish line in 8:01.49 to take almost eight seconds off the German record. Kenya&rsquo;s 17-year-old world U20 champion Edmund Serem was third in a PB of 8:07.47.
<h2>Bol starts in style, Masalela makes statement</h2>
World champion Femke Bol has tweaked her technique since her last 400m hurdles race eight months ago and, using a new race start, she achieved her fastest ever season opener by far.&nbsp;
The Dutch multiple Olympic medallist set a meeting record of 52.46 with a dominant run that saw her win by more than a second. Jamaica&rsquo;s Andrenette Knight was runner-up in 53.90.
&ldquo;I felt good in training, but a real race is always different so it&rsquo;s good to be back after a long time without competitions and to test myself again,&rdquo; said Bol. &ldquo;I changed my step rhythm between the hurdles and I didn&rsquo;t have any problems with it during the race. I had the feeling that it went smoothly but my coach will probably have seen some points of improvement, like maybe the fifth and sixth hurdles.&rdquo;
Botswana&rsquo;s Tshepiso Masalela celebrated his 26th birthday by securing a statement win in the 800m. The pacemaker hit 400m in 49.99, followed by Masalela and Great Britain&rsquo;s Max Burgin, before Masalela took over. The world and Olympic finalist kicked away from his rivals and strode over the finish line in a world-leading meeting record and PB of 1:42.70, adding this victory to the win he claimed in Doha.
Burgin also set a PB, clocking 1:43.34 for the runner-up spot, while Kenya&rsquo;s Olympic champion Emmanuel Wanyonyi came through for third in 1:43.37.
The women&rsquo;s 800m was won by Ethiopia&rsquo;s Tsige Duguma as she narrowly held off her successor as world indoor champion, South Africa&rsquo;s Prudence Sekgodiso, 1:57.42 to 1:57.52.
USA&rsquo;s Jonah Koech secured the biggest 1500m win of his career so far, using a strong finish to triumph after a tactical battle. Azeddine Habz of France had taken control of the race but began to tire down the home straight and he had no response when Koech timed his kick to perfection.
Koech improved the meeting record with a big PB of 3:31.43 and he was followed by Kenya&rsquo;s Reynold Cheruiyot and Festus Lagat who respectively clocked 3:31.78 and 3:32.06 &ndash; a PB for the latter. Habz finished fourth in 3:32.25. Kenya&rsquo;s Nelly Chepchirchir won the women&rsquo;s 1500m in 3:58.04.
In the sprints, South Africa&rsquo;s Akani Simbine maintained his superb start to the season by adding to a win streak that includes victories in Xiamen and Shaoxing/Keqiao, getting another Diamond League triumph in Rabat.
This time the world indoor 60m bronze medallist ran 9.95 (0.6m/s) after chasing down the fast-starting African record-holder Ferdinand Omanyala of Kenya who held on for the runner-up spot in 10.05. USA&rsquo;s 2022 world champion Fred Kerley was third in 10.07 and he went on to match that position in a 200m won by USA&rsquo;s Courtney Lindsey in 20.04 (0.4m/s). Joseph Fahnbulleh finished fast to secure the runner-up spot in 20.12 ahead of Kerley (20.16). Olympic 200m champion Letsile Tebogo had also been due to double up but after jogging over the finish line in the 100m he did not line up for the 200m and later wrote on social media that he is "dealing with a recurring injury".
After finishing second in the 200m in Xiamen, Jamaica&rsquo;s two-time world 200m champion Shericka Jackson started her 100m season with a win, clocking 11.04 (0.2m/s) to win by 0.04 ahead of Maia McCoy, while Nigeria&rsquo;s Tobi Amusan improved the meeting record to 12.45 to triumph in the 100m hurdles.&nbsp;
USA&rsquo;s world leader Jacory Patterson fought all the way to the finish line and was rewarded with 400m victory as he passed a tiring Zakithi Nene and dipped for victory - 44.37 to 44.46. Olympic champion Quincy Hall was third in 44.90.
The men&rsquo;s shot put came down to a thrilling conclusion and in the end USA&rsquo;s Payton Otterdahl and Jamaica&rsquo;s Olympic bronze medallist Rajindra Campbell were separated by just two centimetres.
Otterdahl, back in action just three days after his win at the Continental Tour Gold meeting in Zagreb, led with his opening throw of 21.83m before Campbell launched himself ahead with 21.95m in the fifth round. Otterdahl wasn&rsquo;t done, however, and he responded with a world-leading 21.97m in the sixth and final round to clinch victory.
World champion Katie Moon cleared 4.73m to win the pole vault before taking three attempts at 4.80m, while Olympic champion Hamish Kerr cliched victory in the high jump on countback thanks to his perfect scorecard up to the winning height of 2.25m.
Elina Tzengko made it three out of three when it comes to Diamond League wins this season in the javelin, throwing 64.60m to triumph ahead of Adriana Vilagos (63.25m).

Nine months on from becoming the Olympic 5000m and 10,000m champion in Paris, Kenya’s Beatrice Chebet dropped down in distance to become the second-fastest women’s 3000m runner of all time

Chebet storms to second on world 3000m all-time list with 8:11.56 in Rabat

World and Olympic champion Noah Lyles will race over 100m at the London Athletics Meet &ndash; part of the Wanda Diamond League &ndash; in the British capital on 19 July.
The US sprinter has fond memories of racing in London. His first appearance at this meeting came in 2023 when he won the 200m in a season&rsquo;s best of 19.47 in an epic showdown with Letsile Tebogo. One month later, Lyles went on to win the 100m, 200m and 4x100m at the World Championships in Budapest.
Similarly, Lyles won in London again last year before going on to achieve success at the Olympic Games in Paris. He won the 100m in London in a PB of 9.81, which he went on to reduce to 9.79 when taking gold at the Olympics.
He&rsquo;s now aiming to notch up another victory in London en route to the World Championships in Tokyo, where he hopes to add to the four individual world titles in his collection. After winning the 2019 world 200m gold, he successfully defended that title in 2022 with a PB of 19.31, making him the third-fastest man in history.
&ldquo;My road to defending my world titles in Tokyo in September goes through London,&rdquo; said the 27-year-old, who recently opened his outdoor season with a 400m PB of 45.87. &ldquo;I&rsquo;ve had great experiences there the last two years, running some of my fastest times, and I look forward to another in July.&rdquo;

World and Olympic champion Noah Lyles will race over 100m at the London Athletics Meet – part of the Wanda Diamond League – in the British capital on 19 July.

Lyles looking for another fast run on London return

Six Olympic champions will be in action at the Meeting International Mohammed VI d'Athletisme de Rabat for the fourth fixture in the 2025 Wanda Diamond League series, set for the Moroccan capital on Sunday (25).
Nine months on from claiming the sport&rsquo;s biggest prize in Paris, Letsile Tebogo, Emmanuel Wanyonyi, Beatrice Chebet, Quincy Hall, Soufiane El Bakkali and Hamish Kerr will be aiming to notch up another victory in Rabat as part of their preparations for the World Championships later this year.
Tebogo, the world athlete of the year, will in fact be doubling up in Rabat. He&rsquo;ll first compete in the 100m, where he&rsquo;ll face world indoor bronze medallist Akani Simbine, 2022 world champion Fred Kerley and African record-holder Ferdinand Omanyala.
Then 70 minutes later, Tebogo will be out on the track again, this time for his preferred event, the 200m, where he&rsquo;ll face two-time world medallist Erriyon Knighton and world 400m record-holder Wayde van Niekerk.
Tebogo won the 200m at the Diamond League meeting in Doha earlier this month, but by just 0.01. In Rabat, all nine men in the field have sub-20-second PBs, so he may have to improve on his season&rsquo;s best of 20.10 to pull off another victory.
The men&rsquo;s 800m field is similarly loaded. Wanyonyi, the Olympic champion, takes on Botswana&rsquo;s Tshepiso Masalela, the winner in Doha last week, his compatriot Kethobogile Haingura, two-time Commonwealth champion Wyclife Kinyamal and Olympic finalist Max Burgin.
Following on from her 5000m win in Xiamen last month, double Olympic champion Beatrice Chebet steps down to the 3000m in Rabat. Ejgayehu Taye, who won over 3000m and 5000m at the Grand Slam meeting in Kingston last month, will be among the leading challengers, alongside fellow Ethiopian Lemlem Hailu, Olympic silver medallist Nadia Battocletti and Oceanian record-holder Georgia Griffith.
The majority of the home crowd will be at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium to see their star athlete, Soufiane El Bakkali, in action in the men&rsquo;s steeplechase at the end of the programme. The world and Olympic champion has won at this meeting for the past three years, and it&rsquo;s where he set his lifetime best of 7:56.68.
Having been beaten in his last two steeplechase races, El Bakkali won&rsquo;t want to lose again, but he&rsquo;ll be up against Samuel Firewu, who beat El Bakkali in Xiamen, and Abrham Sime, winner at the following Diamond League meeting in Keqiao. Olympic bronze medallist Abraham Kibiwot and rising Kenyan star Edmund Serem add further quality to the field.
In the men&rsquo;s 400m, Olympic champion Quincy Hall takes on US compatriot Jacory Patterson, who is competing for the first time since setting a world-leading 43.98 in Miramar earlier this month. Not including his appearances at the World Relays and World Indoors, it will be Patterson&rsquo;s first race outside of the USA.
USA&rsquo;s Bryce Deadmon and Botswana&rsquo;s Bayapo Ndori and Leungo Scotch are also in the line-up.
In the men&rsquo;s high jump, Olympic champion Hamish Kerr takes on Olympic silver medallist Shelby McEwen and world silver medallist JuVaughn Harrison.
<h2>World champions to the fore</h2>
Alongside the six Olympic gold medallists in action, five other reigning world champions, indoors or out, will be competing in Rabat.
World 400m hurdles champion Femke Bol will be getting her outdoor campaign under way on Sunday, taking on a field that includes leading Jamaican duo Rushell Clayton and Andrenette Knight.
Two-time world 200m champion Shericka Jackson will make her seasonal 100m debut. The Jamaican will face US pair Cambrea Sturgis and Jacious Sears, Liberia&rsquo;s Maia McCoy, and Australia&rsquo;s Bree Rizzo, the surprise winner in Tokyo last weekend.
In the women&rsquo;s pole vault, world champion Katie Moon lines up alongside 2024 world indoor champion Molly Caudery and European champion Angelica Moser.
New Zealand&rsquo;s Tom Walsh will be competing for the first time since winning his third world indoor shot put title two months ago. He faces two-time world champion Joe Kovacs, who&rsquo;s making his 2025 debut, world silver medallist Leonardo Fabbri, Olympic bronze medallist Rajindra Campbell and world indoor silver medallist Roger Steen.
The women&rsquo;s 800m, meanwhile, will be a clash between the winners of the last two world indoor titles: current champion Prudence Sekgodiso and 2024 winner Tsige Duguma. The latter got her outdoor campaign off to a strong start in Keqiao earlier this month, clocking a world-leading 1:56.64 to break the Ethiopian record.
The top two throwers in the world this year, Adriana Vilagos and Elina Tzengko, will clash in the women&rsquo;s javelin. Olympic silver medallist Jo-An van Dyk, world silver medallist Flor Ruiz and Polish record-holder Maria Andrejczyk are also in the line-up.
