In the main Diamond League action, Kishane Thompson equalled a meeting record to beat Olympic champion Noah Lyles in their first 100m race against each other since the final at Paris 2024.

American Lyles got the better of Thompson to win Olympic gold last year, but the Jamaican was victorious in Poland, clocking 9.87 seconds to edge out his rival by 0.03secs.

“My job is to get the job done. Honestly, I compete against myself, no offence to the competition,” said Thompson.

Sweden’s world record holder Armand Duplantis once again secured victory in the men’s pole vault with a best of 6.10m.

It was not quite the 6.29m that saw the 25-year-old break the world record for the 13th time last week, but it was still enough to take the win ahead of Emmanouil Karalis and Kurtis Marschall.

In the women’s 400m hurdles, Femke Bol of the Netherlands extended her world lead to 51.91s as she sealed her 29th successive Diamond League victory – while Kenya’s Faith Kipyegon missed out on a new world record in the women’s 3,000m by less than a second.

The three-time Olympic 1500m champion crossed the line in a time of 8:07.04, falling just short of the record set by China’s Wang Junxia of 8:06.11 in 1993.

“I am so happy,” Kipyegon said. “I saw the world record red line during the race but today it was very hot.

“I am grateful for what I have done. All those records, this is what I love doing. I want to be an inspiration for young people and I love to challenge myself.”

American Melissa Jefferson-Wooden equalled a meeting record to win the women’s 100m with Britain’s Dina Asher-Smith seventh.
