Nothing longer than 400 for the women though. I wonder why?

too much of the good talent competing in Oslo and/or Stockholm?

[Atticus]

This is a great flaw in the WA Rankings. Some of these fields are far better than DL fields. This meet goes into the WC22 algorithm.

[Paced]

Wow! This looks better than any diamond league meet so far this year...

Also the first time we'll be seeing SAFP vs. ETH outside of national and major championships since 2015 I believe.

The back-to-back Memorial and Monaco DL might be more intense than the Olympics...

According to watchathletics, it will be on the WA YouTube channel. Now, their georestrictions have been very mysterious all year, including Stockholm today not being available in France despite no other TV channels picking it up. I do not know whether those streams are usually available in America.

Gatlin is back. His hammy injury from the trials must have been minor. I wonder what his motivation for running is? Appearance fee? Oly relay consideration? Next year's WC's?

[booond]

That 400 meters for men may be the OG top-four.

Jackson and SMU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Contract obligations?
