BRUSSELS (BEL, Sep 6): Plans to double ended with positive outcome at the AG Memorial Van Damme. Noah Lyles won after 100 m also the 200 m and Sifan Hassan after 1500 m also the 5000 m. But Taylor won 7th triple Diamond and Cheruiyot, Lasitskene and Stefanidi fourth DL trophy. Only meet record in men´s triple jump by Taylor 17.85 windy (+2.1) and 17.66 legal (+0.1). On a chilly evening the full stadium celebrated fast 100 m by Asher-Smith and hurdles by Danielle Williams.
