EME News is the finest global news service in our sport. We are fortunate to have them as a partner. Here is their review of the fine Paris DL. Kudos on Diamond League for moving to Stade Charlety, with 15,000-16,000 in stands, meet looked very good on TV per our observers.

Surprise hurdles winner Levy
PARIS (FRA, Jul 1): Meeting de Paris as 7th in IAAF Diamond League 2017 had at the end of the day solid weather and nearly 20 000 spectators. Also some sensations were registered when Edris beat Kwemoi in the 3000 m, Levy topped hurdles and Vetter javelin. WR holder Jebet fell and could not repeat last year win. Only Kevin Mayer in special triathlon was the French winner of the day. In the duel of the evening Hassan beat Kipyegon for her first defeat of the year. The event was held for first time as DL meet in Charlety Stadium.
