Les principaux résultats

* Lancer du disque dames : Succès de la grande Croate Sandra Perkovic avec 64.49m, Melina Robert Michon termine 6e.

* 800m dames : L'Ethiopienne Worknesh Mesele gagne la course en 2'00"05.

"It seems like a good season. Towards the World Championships, I am satisfied with the results and the training so far. I just wanted the win here and I got it so glad at the moment and let´s go building up on it. In such conditions, I think the time was fast.

If the conditions are ideal, it means it could be a very very fast time - somewhere around my PB but we leave that for the World Championships. I have a two weeks break now, I go back to training and then get ready for the Silesia DL. I do not like rain, I was cold. I just went there and ran."

 

* 5000m dames : Beatrice Chebet (KEN) en grande forme signe un très joli 14'36"52.

"I was the only Kenyan in the race and you know, the Ethiopians are strong and help each other so I had to fight for this win. The first thing was to get the win today and the second was to fight with these conditions.

Yes, the weather was not really good but you need to run in any conditions. It was not easy to finish the race. My main goal now is the new PB at 5000m so maybe in London, if the conditions are good, I can try to do it.

I feel in a good shape so anything is possible. I am already thinking about Budapest where my main target is to get on the podium at 5000m."

 

* 100m haies dames : La Nigériane Tobi Amusan profite des nombreuses absences pour gagner en 12'52, vent +0.9 

 

* 3000m steeple hommes : Pas de surprise avec la victoire de Soufiane El Bakkali (MAR) mais le chrono est resté modeste : 8'09"84.

"In 2017 I came the first time to Stockholm, and I was only 20 years old. At that time I had only won the Diamond League in Rabat, so it meant a lot for me to have my second Diamond League win in Stockholm.

Since then I have won a lot of other races. Unfortunately, the men´s steeplechase hasn´t been on the program at the Bauhasgalan anymore, so I am even more happy to be back winning here. It´s only my second race this season and I feel good.

Now I have to see with my coach how to adapt the trainings. In Rabat I was close to the world record in good conditions, and today there was wind and rain, so why not attempt to break the world record. But the main goal this season remains to extend my world title in Budapest.

I have won the World Championships in Eugene last year and the Olympic Games in Tokyo, so I really want to win my first world title in Europe. Budapest is a really beautiful city and through social media I have already gotten a lot of messages telling me that they are coming to Budapest to cheer me on during my races."

 

* Perche hommes : Malgré les conditions froides et humides, le N°1 mondial Mondo Duplantis (SUE) a fait le show en passant 6.05m en habits d'échauffement avant de tenter d'établir un nouveau record du monde à 6.23m, sans succès.

"I found some rhythm on the runway despite the cold. It was not the weather we wanted of course but I always want to jump well every meet but especially here as this is the most important meet, outside the world champs, for me in the year.

Mentally I felt I was there and in with a chance of the world record which is why I wanted to go for it as well as for the people that had stayed so long into the evening to see me. I wanted to get closer to it but maybe the conditions and tiredness caught up with me in the end there.

I used the biggest pole I had in my bag. I was really fired up and felt I could conquer the world. The crowd were amazing to stay like that and it says so much about their passion for watching athletics and I will always be grateful for that."

 

* 400m haies hommes : Pas de soucis pour Karsten Warholm (NOR) vainqueur en 47'57, toujours dans des conditions fraiches et humides.

"I felt very good before the start but the conditions make it a little bit more challenging, but I felt I had to get in and got to post another good time, so I am very pleased.

I am 100 percent exactly where I want to be, I am in a good position now, I am running fast times so I think I actually have never felt better in my career. So we continue.

To run the records - that is something I want to do. Of course I want to hold the world record. I want to break it myself a couole of times. But it is going to be tough because the time that I ran in Tokyo is really good but I think I can really do better.

I have to say thanks to all the people coming out there tonight because it has been a really rainy day. It is awesome that the people are coming out there and that was also the reason I wanted to put a good performance.

For me, it is going to be now about continuing to stay injury free, to be able to train well and post these good times. I hope I will be able to stabilize on even higher level of the race. I am looking forward to all the races and hopefully to defend my title."

 

* 200m dames : Daryll Neita (GBR) surprend sa coéquipière Dina Asher Smith et gagne en 22'50.

* 800m hommes : On termine avec la victoire de l'Argentin Djamel Sedjati en 1'44"59. Belle troisième place pour Gabriel Tual en 1'44"85.
