The Diamond League moved from Oslo to Sweden’s capital for round seven of the 2024 season, the BAUHAUS-galan.
Reigning world champion Femke Bol kicked off her 400m hurdles effort this Olympic season with a 53.07, just shy of the world lead that rival Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone clocked on Friday (31 May) in the U.S.
Jamiacan sprint star Shericka Jackson bounced back in the 200m, shrugging off her fifth-place finish in Oslo for a win in 22.69. It’s a season’s best for Jackson, but still well shy of her 21.41 from Worlds last season.
Home hope Mondo Duplantis won with ease, then made three valiant attempts at a new pole vault world record, missing each at the 6.25m height.
Wins on the day came for favourites Laura Muir (1500m), Djamel Sedjati (800m), Yaroslava Mahuchik (high jump), Alison dos Santos (400m hurldes) and Chase Jackson (shot put).
Ethiopia’s Lamecha Girma ran to a world lead of 8:01.63 in the men’s 3000m steeplechase, as did Algerian Djamel Sedjati, who bested his own time from last Tuesday (28 May) with a 1:43.23.
