27 year old Chepkoech stopped the clock at 8,44,32. That is by a large margin better than the previous record that was held by Ruth Jebet. The Bahreini set a 8,52,78 World record back in August 2016 in Paris. Chepkoech will also be present at the Diamond League Final in Brussels at the AG Memorial Van Damme. <\/p>\n
Shaunae Miller-Uibo from the Bahamas set a World Leading mark in the Women\u2019s 400m in 48,97 to beat Salwa Eid Naser from Bahrein (49,08 PB) and American Shakima Wimbley (50,85). Miller-Uibo also set a new national record. All three will participate in the Final of this Road to Brussels. <\/p>\n
Sergey Shubenkov won the Men\u2019s 110m Hurdles in 13,07. He has now collected 29 points to become the leader in his event. He has also secured his place in the Final. <\/p>\n
Danil Lysenko topped the Men\u2019s High Jump while equalizing the meeting record with a 2,40m effort. American Christian Taylor showed excellent form in the Men\u2019s Triple Jump where he achieved 17,86w. Both jumpers will also be part of the line up in Brussels. <\/p>\n
Lijao Gong from China was the best in the Women\u2019s Shot Put when she threw the implement to 20,36m. The Chines will be joined by Raven Saunders (USA) and by Christian Schwanitz at the seasonal final in Brussels. <\/p>\n
Eline Berings came in fourth in the Women\u2019s 100m Hurdles in 12,94. Berings is reputed to be strong off her blocks but in Monaco the second part of her race was conspicuously fast. Queen Harrison won the event in 12,64 ahead of her compatriot Dawn Harper-Nelson in 12,90 and Jamaican Yanique Thompson in 12,92. This event was no Diamond Race in Monaco. <\/p>\n
Kenyan Timothy Cheruiyot set a World Leading mark in the Men\u2019s 1500m. Triumphing in 3,28,41 he bettered his own previous mark by 1,3 seconds. <\/p>\n
