Zurich’s Weltklasse meeting on Thursday (1) looks set to once again live up to its ‘Olympics in one day’ nickname. The first of two IAAF Diamond League finals can boast the full complement of medallists from the Rio 2016 Games in six different disciplines.
Pride won’t be the only thing at stake in the Rio rematches. 16 Diamond Race titles will be decided at the Letzigrund Stadium and some contests are set to go down to the wire.

Mark Robinson Interesting that Евгений Аржанов is out in lane 2 at the finish. Nice picture, nice field. Think Byron still has Jamaican mile record?
