An amazing start to the 2017 Diamond League, Great results from Doha!

The night in Doha, Qatar was a near perfect start to the 2017 Diamond League series. The Doha DL had races and events for everyone, from Elaine Thompson’s domination of the 200 meters, to Thomas Rohler’s fine javelin throw, to a huge upset in the women’s steeplechase!

Watch for our event by event coverage of the Doha DL!
