Les temps forts
* Disque dames : Valarie Allman (USA) s'impose avec un gros jet à 65.96m, 5cm de mieux que la Chinoise Bin Feng.
* Triple saut hommes : Gros niveau cette année dans la discipline, à l'image du Cubain Andy Diaz Hernandez vainqueur avec 17.75m, record personnel.
"It was crazy to take the italian national record on the first attempt this evening. My coach Fabrizio Donato got it on june 2000: after 23 years now it´s mine and it was wonderful to have this result in front of an italian crown.
Fabrizio Donato gave me an home when I arrived in Italy and we worked together from the first day to reach this result. Now we have to work more and more to improve: if possibile, Fabrizio is even happier than me. Thank you very much, Florence."
* Poids hommes : Très belle victoire de l'Italien Leonardo Fabbri qui envoie son engin à 21.73m.
* 400m haies dames : La phénoménale Femke Bol débute sa saison en signant un énorme 52'43, record du meeting, MPM 2023.
"This was my first Diamond League race for this year and it is a great result, it met all my expectations! I am really, really happy, I executed the race like I wanted. It was a strong field which pushes me even more.
I changed the rhythm between the hurdles, this change makes it easier, less steps and I am still fast. I am looking forward to run in Hengelo in two days because there will be a lot of people from home.
And, running the 400m gives me a different stimulance. At the World Championships I have the chance to win a gold medal. I never had a world´s gold. So today´s time is nice, but this year is all about Budapest, I hope to do well there."
* 200m hommes : Erriyon Knighton confirme une nouvelle fois l'étendue de son talent naissant avec un magnifique 19'89, vent nul.

"It was good, I wanted to come out there and execute my race plan and if it did not work, I would have tried to do something better. But I executed my race with perfection so I could not have done anything better today.
I feel good, my body is good, my team is working on it, so we just need to continue towards the next meet to get the perfection. To get better each week to have a good season. So it was really important today.
Maybe the start could be a little bit better, there can be a tousand thing that I can improve but I am consitant and the season is still going on.
The conditions were good - a little bit cooler than in Florida but it was amazing and it just feels good to be here. When I do my race plan and the race pattern, it is a phenomenal thing and I am curious what can happen."
* 5000m hommes : Enorme chrono pour l'Espagnol Mohamed Katir vainqueur en 12'52"09, MPM 2023. Les 13 premiers sont passés sous les 13 minutes !
"I came to this meet to test out the waters and check what my form is at the moment. I had the 8th fastest time out of everyone - I have run 12:50 already, yet that was only 8th on the list - so, you can imagine the quality of this 5000 here today.
This is a great feeling ahead of the World Championships this summer. I was not expecting a slow race, mainly due to the level of everyone racing out here. In the end I decided to focus on running my own race."
* 400m dames : Victoire de la Polonaise Natalia Kacmarek en 50'31.
* 100m hommes : Fred Kerley (USA), grand favori, s'impose facilement avec un chrono de 9'94, vent nul
* 1500m dames : Cette soirée se termine en feu d'artifice avec un nouveau record du monde de la discipline signé par la double championne olympique Faith Kipyegon. La Kenyane va boucler sa course folle en 3'49"11.
Elle pulvérise l'ancien record de Genzebe Dibaba, 3'50"07, réussi en 2015 lors du meeting de Monaco.
"When I crossed the finish line, I knew I broke the world record because I had a good finish and felt very very strong at the end. I knew everything was possible. After 1000, when the pace maker went out, I just pushed myself towards the finish line.
And that was what my manager told me - anything is possible - after the pacemaker, just run your race. And that is what I did. I am excited - my family was watching. I told them that this would be an amazing day for me, I am well prepared and I really trusted in me.
I thank my coach, my manager, my family, my daughter, everybody, who was watching. I am going back to celebrate with my daughter. This was really important because this was something I was still missing in my career.
Getting this, it will really motivate me and I left the legacy for the next generation - they can say she broke the world record, she was the Olympic and the world champion. It was amazing tonight. This was special so lets celebrate it now and we will see what happens in Monaco.
I was not expecting this but because of the fans and atmosphere it was possible and they pushed me to the finish. In the last 200m, I did not know it was going to be the world record but I was really pushing myself and I felt that the rest of the field was far behind. I thank god for this."
