Two world leads and a wind-assisted women’s 100m highlighted the meet.

Abby Steiner went top of the world outdoor rankings with her 22.23/1.8 less than a metre ahead of Tamari Davis’s 22.31 PB.

Sha’Carri Richardson achieved 10.75/2.8 in the heats before improving to 10.57/4.1 in the final for the third best ever performance under any conditions. Twanisha Terry was over two metres back but still ran 10.83.

In the men’s race, Jamaican world finalist Oblique Seville ran a just over the limits of 9.91/2.2 but did clock a legal 9.95/1.8 in the heats. Ackeem Blake (9.93) and Aaron Brown (9.97) completed the top three ahead of leading American Ronnie Baker (9.98).

Bahamian Alonzo Russell won the 400m in a 44.93 PB as UK record-holder Matthew Hudson-Smith failed to finish.

The 400m hurdler Shamier Little won the women’s 400m in 50.73 as 200m world champion Shericka Jackson was third in 51.64.
