:00:48. > :00:54.Welcome to highlights of the Shanghai Diamond league. The series
:00:55. > :01:21.got off to a flying start in Doha. The crowd are on their feet. Big
:01:22. > :01:32.victory. What a response. Looking good. Striding through. Shanghai is
:01:33. > :01:37.the largest city that host a Diamond league meeting, with an estimated
:01:38. > :01:38.population of 24 million. Well-known for it towering skyscrapers, it is
:01:39. > :01:45.the commercial hub of China. They are you've got the start of the
:01:46. > :02:04.first race. The surprise champion in Beijing
:02:05. > :02:06.last year. The first man to break 48 seconds and he did it in the World
:02:07. > :02:17.Championship final. There is not much in it as they
:02:18. > :02:32.approach the first turn. There is not much in it as they
:02:33. > :02:42.going well, so is Clements, but certainly Bett going strongly. Top
:02:43. > :02:50.class competitor when it comes to the Championship. They are coming
:02:51. > :02:58.into the street. Look at the inside. Very good 300 metres. Coming through
:02:59. > :03:20.very strongly. He may well take this. 48.9. Very good competitive
:03:21. > :03:23.race. Really gave those with a high credential a real race. You would
:03:24. > :03:38.not have put him in with a chance of winning. Copello has not been too
:03:39. > :03:41.strong over the hurdles. This appointment for the world champion,
:03:42. > :03:48.but the Olympic silver-medallist, really strong. He came off better
:03:49. > :03:59.than anybody. Really finished strongly. It is Tinsley who get the
:04:00. > :04:04.honours. There it is, season best. Good run by Dobek.
:04:05. > :04:10.Coming up, Justin Gatlin and in the men's hundred metres. The pole
:04:11. > :04:45.vault. Bondarenko takes on local heroes in
:04:46. > :04:46.the high jump. The women's long jump, on the far side of the
:04:47. > :04:57.stadium. It was a very good opener and that
:04:58. > :05:05.is certainly going to put the pressure on the rest of the field,
:05:06. > :05:11.that's for sure. Only the first four go through to the last three rounds
:05:12. > :05:24.of the field events. 6.9 five. What a way to start the competition. That
:05:25. > :05:29.looked easy. This is a man who cleared 2.42 into vogue and 14. Two
:05:30. > :05:32.centimetres off the world record. Start the competition well. He looks
:05:33. > :05:49.good so far. That is more like it. A bit of
:05:50. > :05:54.aggression in the last performance. Looking a bit happier this time. The
:05:55. > :06:06.crowd are warming to this, and so is he. Conditions were not as benign as
:06:07. > :06:11.they are tonight. On the far side of the track, the women lining up for
:06:12. > :06:24.the 1500 metres. Very good field we have got.
:06:25. > :06:41.The way is left open for Faith Kipyegon. The pacemaker is
:06:42. > :06:43.Tverdostup. Kipyegon says she is in great shape and ready to go. There
:06:44. > :07:10.is Jenny Simpson. We'll Jenny Simpson be able to
:07:11. > :07:18.follow with her? She's done well at the world champions, in the Olympic
:07:19. > :07:23.Games, she wants to make sure the Americans are they when the medals
:07:24. > :07:37.are being handed out. We'll get a good indication as to what sort of
:07:38. > :07:45.form they are in. She's got through the first 300 pretty quickly. The
:07:46. > :07:50.field is strong note. It is a respectable race. We will forget
:07:51. > :08:02.about the pacemaking. Jenny Simpson is such an athlete, world champion.
:08:03. > :08:10.She is a class act when it comes to the major championships. Kipyegon is
:08:11. > :08:15.in current form. Has always come off the base of a cross-country
:08:16. > :08:22.background and that has seen her in very good form. She loves Shanghai
:08:23. > :08:30.and she broke the record here. She enjoys it. We will see no as the 800
:08:31. > :08:42.metres mark, the first of those marks we will see, what sort of time
:08:43. > :08:49.they are doing. Kipyegon just sitting back off the pace. Jenny
:08:50. > :08:59.Simpson sitting a little further back and watching what is going on.
:09:00. > :09:09.He was right up there. The pace is expected to drop but Kipyegon, I
:09:10. > :09:14.would imagine will not be out there for much longer. The second lap was
:09:15. > :09:16.around 66 seconds, that often happens, they go off quick and then
:09:17. > :09:42.settle down. There is a gap of three metres,
:09:43. > :09:54.certainly, Kipyegon has got the job of leading the field around. With
:09:55. > :09:55.one lap to go, it seems to me Kipyegon is leading with a
:09:56. > :10:09.vengeance. They are kicking down the back
:10:10. > :10:30.straight. The 19-year-old is ready to pounce.
:10:31. > :10:37.The Kenyon has got five metres. This is really impressive. Kipyegon. 100
:10:38. > :10:43.metres to go and she is easily moving away from this field. This is
:10:44. > :10:55.excellent sprinting but there is a huge amount of distance. What a last
:10:56. > :11:07.lap. A meeting record. It was not that quick through 800 metres, 1200
:11:08. > :11:21.metres, but that last 200 can kick pretty well. I think HAssan has got
:11:22. > :11:24.some injury problems. They've got someone to content with here. --
:11:25. > :11:37.Hassan. That was excellent from Kipyegon. It was an excellent
:11:38. > :11:45.finish. It is early days. That is a pretty good run. She is way down in
:11:46. > :11:53.the field. That was class. Absolute class. It is a new record for Kenny.
:11:54. > :12:41.Nettey of Canada. This is her third Some personal bests.
:12:42. > :12:47.That is second place. It was pretty good on the board. Nice technique,
:12:48. > :13:06.nothing complicated about that. It is a good extension. Good jumps.
:13:07. > :13:18.Season's best. Really got to go for this one. Yes. Big sigh of relief.
:13:19. > :13:41.He allows himself a smile. Justin Gatlin goes in the 100
:13:42. > :13:53.metres. He says he is aiming for Gould in Brazil. The men are out.
:13:54. > :14:08.This should be a cracker. Justin Gatlin has got an ankle
:14:09. > :14:19.problem. We will soon find out whether it will go. Rogers,
:14:20. > :14:28.silver-medallist. World indoor silver-medallist. He is said to have
:14:29. > :14:55.an ankle injury. Gatlin certainly got away well. He
:14:56. > :15:11.is leading this field. That is the time you would expect.
:15:12. > :15:17.It is said that he is not as sharp as he has been, but an injury front
:15:18. > :15:23.that was a dominant of racing. He is difficult to beat, only one man can
:15:24. > :15:27.do it, and he is not here at the moment. I think you'll be pleased to
:15:28. > :15:30.get the win. He said he is not sure what's sort of, that he's missed
:15:31. > :15:38.training because of his ankle problems. I'm not sure when he will
:15:39. > :15:42.stop running really fast. 9.94 certainly couldn't have. Not the
:15:43. > :15:46.sort of form that he is in theoretically. As ever, Catlin opens
:15:47. > :15:49.up the gap, disclosed on him a little in the last 30 or 40, maybe
:15:50. > :15:53.that is where he is missing a little. There she is, Justin Gatlin
:15:54. > :16:09.at 9.9 four. Season best. This is how the Diamond League
:16:10. > :16:13.points system works. There are 14 meetings in, with 16 different track
:16:14. > :16:17.and field events for men and women across the season. Every event, be
:16:18. > :16:20.it Sprint, hurdles or shop but has its own competition with seven
:16:21. > :16:27.rounds. The winner of each round gets ten points, or the way down to
:16:28. > :16:32.1.4 six. Double points are up for grabs in the finale is in Zurich and
:16:33. > :16:36.Brussels. In September each overall Diamond League race winner will take
:16:37. > :16:46.home $40,000 and a sparkling diamond trophy.
:16:47. > :16:57.This is China Bartoletta and in fifth round, 675 with that jump.
:16:58. > :17:01.Champion in the long fifth round, 675 with that jump.
:17:02. > :17:09.in 2015, and also back in 2005 as well. Lovely left, once again, the
:17:10. > :17:14.simplicity of that hang in the centre. Getting a position to extend
:17:15. > :17:27.simplicity of that hang in the and perform six .7 five. That is the
:17:28. > :17:37.Canadian, Nettey Christabel. Very quick on the runway. That is just
:17:38. > :17:45.short of the lead just don't. -- just now. This is the fifth round.
:17:46. > :17:48.She hits the board well, very quick. Pan-American games winner last year,
:17:49. > :17:53.and World Championship finalist. She has been around for a little while.
:17:54. > :18:04.Not particularly big, but very quick on the runway. That is second place
:18:05. > :18:09.for her. The world indoor bronze-medallist, Lorraine Ugen, had
:18:10. > :18:14.a difficult night to night. Harry could only finish in fifth place,
:18:15. > :18:17.and's best performance came in the third round, 655, not good enough to
:18:18. > :18:23.get another three jumps in the competition. There you have got the
:18:24. > :18:30.final result. Ivana Spanovic twit that 6.95, meeting record. Then the
:18:31. > :18:37.world champion, Bartoletta, settling for third place. 400 metres lined up
:18:38. > :18:40.like this, no athlete in lane one. Athletes to watch out for our
:18:41. > :18:47.Shaunae Miller and Shericka Jackson, that is the future of the event
:18:48. > :18:51.here. Lovely Williams-Mills of Jamaica leads as well. These young
:18:52. > :18:54.lady, Shaunae Miller of the Bahamas is impressing everyone, World
:18:55. > :18:58.Championship silver-medallist behind Allyson Felix last year with a
:18:59. > :19:05.bronze at the indoor couple of years ago. Really is with Jackson, showing
:19:06. > :19:10.the potential that is around just now. She is just 21 years old as
:19:11. > :19:15.well, Shericka Jackson. Shaunae Miller already on great form this
:19:16. > :19:17.year. Williams-Mills could run for her in Kingston recently but Miller
:19:18. > :19:30.already under 50 seconds. Miller starting very quickly, taking
:19:31. > :19:36.couple of metres off Jackson outside her. Starting fast in lane eight.
:19:37. > :19:39.They are setting the pace. Jackson is starting to get moving. Her
:19:40. > :19:49.season form has not been quite as good. Shaunae Miller setting the
:19:50. > :19:56.pace through the first 200. They might stop, under some pressure.
:19:57. > :19:59.Hastings starting to run her down. Shaunae Miller still looks a little
:20:00. > :20:04.tight at this point. As she overcooked it through the first 200
:20:05. > :20:08.metres? Trying to hang on, MacPherson, three. Miller trying to
:20:09. > :20:12.strengthen this out. Hastings is finishing as well, Miller now
:20:13. > :20:19.pulling away, opens up a gap over the last 21st of Miller takes its
:20:20. > :20:21.just outside 50 seconds. Heating is for the law places, Shericka
:20:22. > :20:25.Jackson, really disappointing performance from her. But Miller,
:20:26. > :20:28.that was hard tonight. Maybe went performance from her. But Miller,
:20:29. > :20:32.out to hard through the first 200, performance from her. But Miller,
:20:33. > :20:36.really did attack it. It's a bit breezy back straight, straight,
:20:37. > :20:38.dodged it wrong and a chair to fight hard, looked like he was -- she
:20:39. > :20:42.would come under some hard, looked like he was -- she
:20:43. > :20:44.she hung on. Yes, the first 200 was very strong, she looks like she was
:20:45. > :20:48.going to suffer very strong, she looks like she was
:20:49. > :20:52.300. She had a little bit left in the final stages, which was
:20:53. > :20:57.surprisingly no way. Tall, elegant and powerful in the final stages
:20:58. > :20:57.ahead of Steph MacPherson and Natasha Hastings, also punishing
:20:58. > :21:08.pretty quickly as well. Good injuries from Miller. Holding
:21:09. > :21:13.perform very well. She has run much quicker already this year but
:21:14. > :21:17.MacPherson with her season's best. Disappointing performance from some
:21:18. > :21:20.of the others. The mental 's Pol Pot sees a casting the world and Olympic
:21:21. > :21:25.champions foot up Shawn Barber won gold in Beijing last year as a world

:21:46. > :21:55.world champion having passed 552 at at his world attempt, is to get over
:21:56. > :22:03.this to survive in the competition. No love Elaine either. Barbara,
:22:04. > :22:09.first attempt, he has to get over because it is his third attempt. --
:22:10. > :22:14.no Lavillenie. This time Barbara dicing with real problems. Sigh of
:22:15. > :22:20.relief, he is well clear. dicing with real problems. Sigh of
:22:21. > :22:32.Barber survives. We'll see more of the world champion.
:22:33. > :22:43.Pole vault is Lavillenie. He said he was in a bit of bother, a sigh of
:22:44. > :22:47.relief from the Frenchman. Great winter season and he will want to
:22:48. > :22:51.really set is outdoor season off well. He has had a couple of
:22:52. > :22:55.competitions, but once you're into the Diamond League, everyone starts
:22:56. > :22:59.thinking about six metres. He looks a long way from that night so far.
:23:00. > :23:03.thinking about six metres. He looks He looks a little bit disgruntled,
:23:04. > :23:19.but he is over. Clear on the second attempt. This is why new, -- Wang.
:23:20. > :23:28.We are up to the bigger heights. Sadly for him, that is the end. Bar
:23:29. > :23:36.at 231. Really starting to find people out now.
:23:37. > :23:44.Zhang has a third and final attempt at 231. He really can do this. He
:23:45. > :23:54.has had 233 this season, his best is 238, can he do it in front of his
:23:55. > :24:01.home crowd. So close! So he has gone as well. It looks to me as though
:24:02. > :24:05.Bondarenko is in the driving seat in this competition. Yes, he is the
:24:06. > :24:11.only one left now. It is up to him how high he goes. His first-time
:24:12. > :24:17.clearances at 222, two to eight, he doesn't have to go higher. Starting
:24:18. > :24:29.for the men's 800 metres, as they go through. Zelinsky ran well at the
:24:30. > :24:32.world indoors. One of the biggest names in world athletics, great
:24:33. > :24:41.seeing here in Shanghai for the first time, first Diamond League
:24:42. > :24:44.appearance of 20 16th two -- 2016, world record holder as well. And
:24:45. > :24:58.Michael Rimmer from Great Britton on the inside, his first big tournament
:24:59. > :24:59.of the season. Radicchio ran well previously, he says he's looking for
:25:00. > :25:05.143 tonight for meeting record. previously, he says he's looking for
:25:06. > :25:09.has been left at the start line, but more importantly the pacemaker, Bram
:25:10. > :25:14.Som might as well stop running because Bram Som and Rhodesia did
:25:15. > :25:23.not know the gun had gone. Look at him, there is no way he will catch
:25:24. > :25:26.up. 30 metres behind, he was asked to 350 seconds for the radicchio

:25:31. > :25:33.realises that some didn't start probably first look at some racing
:25:34. > :25:39.around the outside get to the front, he will run about 46 seconds, that
:25:40. > :25:45.is impressive in itself. What a farce. It was. There were a couple
:25:46. > :25:49.of them did not hear, some is backing the lead at last. This is a
:25:50. > :25:58.challenge for him, he really has had to motor with radicchio look so easy
:25:59. > :26:03.in comparison. 52 68 for the first foreign metres. Incredible. So when
:26:04. > :26:06.ski -- Sowinski tugs in second place behind the great man. This is a
:26:07. > :26:11.different type of race and one that he is more than used to being able
:26:12. > :26:14.to control. Radicchio moving up on the outside. Zelinsky sitting where
:26:15. > :26:22.he has been. Protest blocked on the inside. When spread looking for room
:26:23. > :26:25.on the outside. Cook made as well as the world indoor Championships
:26:26. > :26:28.trying to put them under pressure. Has the big man got the ability to
:26:29. > :26:36.kick away this early in the season in this type of race? He has got the
:26:37. > :26:39.lead. He has got what I had on the inside. People are trying to get
:26:40. > :26:45.through. The big man will be beaten. Wrote it has screamed through, David
:26:46. > :26:53.Rudisha is beaten and a big shot here. David Rudisha, Rogers found a
:26:54. > :26:59.gap as radicchio floundered. He was watching the people on the outside.
:27:00. > :27:05.Stewart, you have to be able to win these races. It was supposed to be
:27:06. > :27:09.set up by the pacemaker, I can see him complaining to race organisers
:27:10. > :27:12.already but that is not their fault, you start to run the race, he is not
:27:13. > :27:17.happy. But that is like a championship race, a championship
:27:18. > :27:23.type of time if you're in the heats or semifinals. Not winning to what
:27:24. > :27:27.he was thinking about coming into the race, but wrote it, he is always
:27:28. > :27:31.quick on the home straight, but I bet even he wasn't expecting to slip
:27:32. > :27:36.through and Rhodesia beat so for any home straight. How did he move out
:27:37. > :27:39.and allow the gap to occur on the inside? He must have realised he was
:27:40. > :27:44.coming and then you cannot move across full stop you write about
:27:45. > :27:52.Cook Amy, he was running strongly. Wrote it and be what, the ones that
:27:53. > :28:05.run past him -- they're what by what an -- Rotich and by what -- Robert
:28:06. > :28:13.Biwott. That of a messy race from any of them, including the
:28:14. > :28:19.Americans, well down. The man who has already won the iPod -- item
:28:20. > :28:23.competition, he decided to pass the 231, did not attempt that. This
:28:24. > :28:30.would be best in the world so far this year, third attempt at 234. He
:28:31. > :28:33.has entertained the crowd, they would probably have loved to have
:28:34. > :28:38.seen their champion and give him more to think about tonight, but he
:28:39. > :28:43.has only had five jobs, two first-time clearances and then comes
:28:44. > :28:46.in at 234 and does not go clear. How things have changed. She Ms form,
:28:47. > :28:50.Bondarenko has been injured and is coming back into the scene, no one
:28:51. > :28:53.is really getting up to the great heights and yet, but it is early.
:28:54. > :29:10.She is really in trouble. There is the result. All decided on count
:29:11. > :29:21.back. His second jumpers or the gone. What can he do?
:29:22. > :29:31.That is the lead by the look of it, has extended beyond the eight-metre
:29:32. > :29:37.line. Let's look at the board, perfect, spot on the board. Good
:29:38. > :29:49.position and good live, a nice 2.5 hitch kick.
:29:50. > :30:04.The he has said himself, his technique must be improved. He has
:30:05. > :30:26.got ability. The 3000 metres steeplechase, there it is. The
:30:27. > :30:39.principles in this race. Olympic Games silver-medallist in London
:30:40. > :30:43.there. The world champion is Kiyeng. Let's see what sort of race we can
:30:44. > :30:56.get here. They were saying that they wanted to get somewhere near nine
:30:57. > :30:59.minutes and 15 seconds. The pacemakers are right in front and it
:31:00. > :31:06.looks as though they mean business. That is a good
:31:07. > :31:14.looks as though they mean business. field is already beginning to spread
:31:15. > :31:18.out in this early stages. It is a wide-open event in the World
:31:19. > :31:25.out in this early stages. It is a Championships. There have been
:31:26. > :31:34.several champions over the years. Kiyeng won the world champions. It
:31:35. > :31:47.has been a very up and down period for the steeplechasers. It has.
:31:48. > :31:54.Certainly, tucked in there, not that interested in the early pace but she
:31:55. > :32:01.is a very good athlete. She probably went in as the favourite. The winner
:32:02. > :32:09.in Shanghai is at the fourth. An open looking event but for me, she
:32:10. > :32:20.has got the right action. Did not win very much -- I very much in the
:32:21. > :32:34.World Championships. We've got a fall and it is believed runner! She
:32:35. > :32:41.is gone. Before that barrier. It leaves Zhang in the lead. That was a
:32:42. > :32:55.pretty heavy fall. Back to the vault. Yes. I think he's happy with
:32:56. > :33:10.that. Just looking at the attempts there. He's had successes. That is
:33:11. > :33:20.an emphatic clearance. It really is. He is putting pressure on everyone.
:33:21. > :33:29.Very strong on the runway. He is creating the energy to deliver him
:33:30. > :33:40.back to the top. Barbour really had problems, 5.6 two. Let's see what he
:33:41. > :33:47.does at this one. Not as good as the previous but he has got it. He's
:33:48. > :33:59.very cold. When you look at him as an athlete, years superbly equipped
:34:00. > :34:11.for this event. He has got a problem.
:34:12. > :34:19.He has looked really out of sorts this evening. That is more like it.
:34:20. > :34:24.With the indoor forms you been showing, would start the season with
:34:25. > :34:27.a bit of a bang. Still doesn't work as smooth as we often
:34:28. > :34:37.a bit of a bang. Still doesn't work Frenchman but a little fist bump to
:34:38. > :34:47.the stands. That is better. Two last ago. If she keeps this going she is
:34:48. > :34:55.set for a very good time. If you are in the range of 9.10, she could
:34:56. > :34:58.still hit that, despite the fact she went so hard, still running strongly
:34:59. > :35:11.and at the minute there is no sign of slowing down. Not making any
:35:12. > :35:20.progress in closing that gap. The Kenyon is starting to pick it up a
:35:21. > :35:39.little bit. As you say, has got a little bit of pressure coming. It is
:35:40. > :35:45.not over yet. If Kiyeng can find a little bit of balance, you never
:35:46. > :35:53.know. It has been a very good run by the leader. That is brochure. Every
:35:54. > :35:58.barrier it is like she is landing in mud, just about stopping. The world
:35:59. > :36:03.champion is closing with every single straight here. She's got to
:36:04. > :36:11.be tired at this sort of pace. Both of them running pretty quick. Just
:36:12. > :36:15.about three quarters of a lap to go. The world champion has really got
:36:16. > :36:21.closer and closer and subtle increase pace as they approach 200
:36:22. > :36:27.metres to go. I think Kiyeng will come off this better. She takes over
:36:28. > :36:33.with 200 metres to go. Kiyeng leagues. In second place is the
:36:34. > :36:40.young woman who has led for most of this. The rest are miles behind.
:36:41. > :36:59.This is a fine run and look at the clock. She has fallen over. She is
:37:00. > :37:19.still going to hold second place. Very quick indeed. Going to hold on
:37:20. > :37:23.for third. She was taken online. If that is confirmed that will be the
:37:24. > :37:29.sixth fastest of all time. Just waiting for the official
:37:30. > :37:35.confirmation. You've got to feel sorry. She seemed to catch the
:37:36. > :37:41.curve. Partly because she was so tired. When it comes back to bite
:37:42. > :37:46.you, it really does. She was so tired coming into the home straight.
:37:47. > :37:51.When she saw the champion pulling away, she lost a few seconds.
:37:52. > :37:56.Finished ten seconds behind in the end. But you've got to hand it to
:37:57. > :38:03.this young lady. When you watch her going over the barriers, that is
:38:04. > :38:07.what most of them cannot do. She has that ability to take the barrier in
:38:08. > :38:11.her stride and even if it was not a close race it enables her to win.
:38:12. > :38:18.But people were falling and tripping and that was very early on. I wonder
:38:19. > :38:27.whether we will see that in the last lap. She went down, she was so
:38:28. > :38:39.tired. Look at this, that is not bad.
:38:40. > :38:51.You lose concentration, step on the curve. Hopefully she has not twisted
:38:52. > :38:55.her ankle. She did finish OK. How strong was Kiyeng?
:38:56. > :39:14.her ankle. She did finish OK. How That will take some beating.
:39:15. > :39:20.At the lead taken from them pretty quickly and with four left, still
:39:21. > :39:40.leading from round one. That is very close. Leading the world rankings.
:39:41. > :40:05.Very good. The Chinese athletes, because he has been in this round,
:40:06. > :40:10.so few jumpers, E point 14. This is the final vault. World champion has
:40:11. > :40:19.gone. He had to go higher if he was the final vault. World champion has
:40:20. > :40:26.to have any chance of winning the event. That has not happened.
:40:27. > :40:53.Nowhere near that. He's going to be back down in third place.
:40:54. > :41:07.That was better on the plant. That is it. Those raked into the lead
:41:08. > :41:13.with that. Second time clearance. Seeing the world champion go out and
:41:14. > :41:21.that clearance is most emphatic. Very fast on the runway.
:41:22. > :41:40.that clearance is most emphatic. to be positive. He has taken the
:41:41. > :41:43.lead. You can see when they go through, they think, I will sit
:41:44. > :41:51.lead. You can see when they go one out. He finds himself in fourth
:41:52. > :42:06.place. That was good. Might have done himself some good. Saving his
:42:07. > :42:20.best for the very end. Good fight off the board. That may have stood
:42:21. > :42:40.him in good stead. That will move him into third spot.
:42:41. > :42:46.Kendricks in the pole vault again. He's got it. Third and final
:42:47. > :43:42.attempt. Watch out for her, Ahoure, and
:43:43. > :43:56.Veronica Campbell-Brown, watch out for her. The most experienced in the
:43:57. > :43:57.field. No problem with the start. It is pretty easy as they go into the
:43:58. > :44:26.bend. Now putting some pressure on. Ahoure had a very good bet. She
:44:27. > :44:40.really did. That was good to see, 22.72, not emphatic. Pretty tough
:44:41. > :44:45.run but a very fine band indeed. Another disappointing performance
:44:46. > :44:49.from Witney, Americans think she could be the future of their sprints
:44:50. > :44:54.but she was a long way off. She gets a good start and you think
:44:55. > :44:57.Campbell-Brown is going to go past but Ahoure finds a little bit extra.
:44:58. > :45:16.Really good performance from her. Ivory Coast over two Jamaicans. The
:45:17. > :45:31.javelin is now in progress as you can see.
:45:32. > :45:38.800 grams javelin wing its way out to just short of 85 metres. We will
:45:39. > :45:47.get confirmation of that in a moment. He leans back and applies
:45:48. > :45:53.force of the biggest possible range. National champion a couple of
:45:54. > :45:57.seasons ago. The best of 8676, also in Japan on the 8th of May. Has come
:45:58. > :46:03.into year with a pretty good performance. Throwing into the wind,
:46:04. > :46:13.8477 in the second round. In second place. The poll vault, Sam Kendricks
:46:14. > :46:25.at five .8 eight. What can he do? Third attempt. He goes clear!
:46:26. > :46:30.Lavillenie looked like he was in the box seat, Kendricks took three
:46:31. > :46:37.attempts to clear it and in his third attempt the American takes the
:46:38. > :46:42.advantage in the pole vault. Look at that, well clear. Real daylight for
:46:43. > :46:47.the American. Would love outdoors to get closer to six metres, certainly
:46:48. > :46:51.in the five 90s to begin with to go with what he has done indoors.
:46:52. > :47:00.Kendricks, look at what that means to him. Superb from the American.
:47:01. > :47:07.What a cop petition Abdelrahman had last year. -- competition. 95 metres
:47:08. > :47:12.in this javelin competition. That is about 83, I would think. Not finding
:47:13. > :47:20.before we've seen. He has been away from long time, World Championship
:47:21. > :47:27.silver-medallist last year. He got 88.99 on that occasion. This is the
:47:28. > :47:32.start of his new season. 81.51 is this season was not best, so that
:47:33. > :47:39.will extend beyond it. He's obviously frustrated, not getting
:47:40. > :47:45.any real power into that throw. It is about rhythm and timing and
:47:46. > :47:49.exerting mother got that. It 3.16, he is in fourth place. Qualify here
:47:50. > :47:54.the track the main line up for the hours -- 5000 metres. 12.5 laps, we
:47:55. > :47:58.will look for and if your pin challenge not themselves with one or
:47:59. > :48:06.two Kenyans getting in the mix. Kejelcha and Gebrhiwet to our young
:48:07. > :48:09.Ethiopians with such reachability. Kejelcha is the world indoor
:48:10. > :48:24.champion, the one that most people are excited about. Still 18
:48:25. > :48:30.The meeting record of 30 minutes and four seconds, well under the ability
:48:31. > :48:34.of many men in this field, just whether not they want to do that
:48:35. > :48:40.night. What more fire does in championship races, they got to find
:48:41. > :48:47.people in the pew -- Ethiopians and Kenyans, it tends to rely on these
:48:48. > :48:51.trusted guys, Kejelcha gave Mo Farah good run. Kejelcha could then
:48:52. > :48:55.produce the right sort of finish at the World Championships, although
:48:56. > :49:00.what he did indoors was a great race over 3000 metres that sure he does
:49:01. > :49:05.have pace. I think we can see the answer already today about the
:49:06. > :49:10.question on the pacemaking. Let's ignore the one exception. On debt to
:49:11. > :49:15.see how Kejelcha performs tonight. What tactics he employs and how he
:49:16. > :49:19.decides to win this. Learning to win and kicked and how to kick, he was
:49:20. > :49:25.rather the first couple of times, he likes to get in front at the right
:49:26. > :49:37.time and build it up. It's if he can do this it is 593.
:49:38. > :49:42.Disappointment in the past four Lavillenie, a couple times world
:49:43. > :49:46.champion, bronze last year and was disappointed with that after being
:49:47. > :49:53.world champion previously. Nowhere near Coral got all wrong on the
:49:54. > :49:57.plant. Sam Kendricks, what a scout to take, to come in with a personal
:49:58. > :50:01.best and beat the number one on performance in the world, man who
:50:02. > :50:08.has been way over six metres in competition that tells the story. 59
:50:09. > :50:16.three. First attempt, third overall. Kendricks takes it on. Confirmation,
:50:17. > :50:21.5.88, an outdoor personal best. He has been higher indoors. The world
:50:22. > :50:30.champion, Shawn Barber, hanging on to third place. Rohler in the
:50:31. > :50:36.javelin. Round one was where he grappled it has not let go since.
:50:37. > :50:40.He has been dominant all the way through, another good, solid
:50:41. > :50:48.performance from him. Will not improve his position, but nobody
:50:49. > :50:54.really coming that close. The Czech Republic man has been in good form
:50:55. > :50:58.this year. It 4.77 in round two, but that was it. Again moving into the
:50:59. > :51:02.last three rounds, the top for me, not really producing much or
:51:03. > :51:07.changing the situation in the event at all. The selling in third,
:51:08. > :51:15.Abdelrahman in fourth, the season plus that best as well. Not the
:51:16. > :51:20.easiest of conditions, but Thomas Rohler, that first-round throw is
:51:21. > :51:31.good enough for the winter night. There are chairs, Rohler at 85.7
:51:32. > :51:39.one. Five glitch -- there it is. Two laps to go in the men's 5000.
:51:40. > :51:47.Kejelcha in a good position there. Every red really tucked on the
:51:48. > :51:59.inside -- Gebrhiwet. They're sitting in waiting, editors in the pack. Now
:52:00. > :52:04.another stretch, Empire ran 1317 last year in Belgium. Asnicar Bardy
:52:05. > :52:10.by a. Again attacking from the front, is looking good, Raab is
:52:11. > :52:15.looking good. They're fighting for on, he needs to get out of where he
:52:16. > :52:22.is with 600 goal. Look at the big man, how easy he looks. Kejelcha
:52:23. > :52:26.just sitting there, beautifully relaxed. Wonderful piece of control
:52:27. > :52:30.running just now. Gebrhiwet is grimacing a little right on the
:52:31. > :52:34.inside, Merga is right behind him. There is a grace and by you has
:52:35. > :52:41.taken it on, but the tall, elegant figure of Kejelcha is now about five
:52:42. > :52:46.or six metres off the lead. This would be a surprise, buying him from
:52:47. > :52:51.the front where he has been for the last three or four laps. Kejelcha
:52:52. > :52:55.moving with him, Edwards trying to get up there. Ugandan also when with
:52:56. > :52:58.a chance and an opportunity, but Gebrhiwet absolutely nowhere,
:52:59. > :53:04.nothing more in his legs. Now they are gathering down the back
:53:05. > :53:09.straight, Kejelcha, the world indoor champion, has he got enough?
:53:10. > :53:14.Longosiwa holding the curb and hauling the tall Ethiopian. It
:53:15. > :53:17.Ugandan who has hit the front. With the two-metre lead, Cheptegei, no
:53:18. > :53:22.edges the two-metre lead, Cheptegei, no
:53:23. > :53:27.the top bend with a real burst of speed. It is a dress who hits the
:53:28. > :53:32.front. Longer see were trying to get back to him and Kejelcha trying to
:53:33. > :53:36.chase as well that it will be Ethiopian, address, not who we
:53:37. > :53:40.expected, he has enough time to wave to the crowd, disclosed 13
:53:41. > :53:44.expected, he has enough time to wave just inside the 56 last lap, meeting
:53:45. > :53:51.record. just inside the 56 last lap, meeting
:53:52. > :53:55.nationality of the winner, however in an Olympic year when they are all
:53:56. > :54:01.got to lay down a marker, where they will all be trying to make that
:54:02. > :54:04.team, it is Muktar Edris who has jumped the top of the rankings as
:54:05. > :54:11.far as Ethiopia are concerned, the Diamond League. Kejelcha on the last
:54:12. > :54:15.lap, completely blown away. Did not look the same as I seen him in the
:54:16. > :54:21.past. There was a lacklustre in his running, and Edwards had lots of
:54:22. > :54:24.power coming past Longosiwa and Cheptegei was not finished and
:54:25. > :54:29.longer see himself under pressure. That was such a good race, such a
:54:30. > :54:34.good run by a dress. Muktar Edris, World Championship finalist, seventh
:54:35. > :54:39.in the 5000 in Moscow in 2013. This is the start of a New Year as a
:54:40. > :54:44.start that might see him putting pressure for the rest of the season.
:54:45. > :54:47.That was a very good run indeed. Big win for him, under 30 minutes is
:54:48. > :54:54.really good, the last kilometre and a personal best. For a long time in
:54:55. > :54:58.buying was forcing the pace in the latter stages for is a really
:54:59. > :55:02.disappointing for Kejelcha. The men's hurdles, barriers of three
:55:03. > :55:19.foot six. What a we have. -- what afield we have. No problem
:55:20. > :55:23.for the start. I hope they call them back, it was all over the place, the
:55:24. > :55:27.second gun was late and they will take some time to recover from that
:55:28. > :55:34.and get themselves set up again. I'm not sure what happened, there was.
:55:35. > :55:40.-- if there was a false start or a faulty one or what. Let's have a
:55:41. > :55:49.look at Ortega, you cannot tell from that. It is the red card. It came up
:55:50. > :55:53.as less than 0.1, which is the deciding factor. I get he's not
:55:54. > :56:00.happy but sometimes you have to accept that.
:56:01. > :56:14.Another one. Merits this time. You cannot see from that come along the
:56:15. > :56:24.far side, three in. That will not tell you. It is a red card. Urges
:56:25. > :56:35.merit is gone as well. Another attempt at the men's 110 metres
:56:36. > :56:38.hurdles. McLeod got away quickly. He can stay out of where the hurdles,
:56:39. > :56:48.Parchment going strong as well Bascou is running strongly as well.
:56:49. > :56:53.McLeod has it. He promised it and he said if I can get out of the way of
:56:54. > :56:59.the hurdles then sub 30 will happen. The only manager of the high hurdles
:57:00. > :57:03.event that has run below ten seconds and below 13 seconds. I have to say,
:57:04. > :57:09.when you can run that quick over 100 metres you do need to be classy at
:57:10. > :57:14.getting over these three foot six Paris, because they, so very fast.
:57:15. > :57:18.When I spoke to merit after 's world record in 2011 he said it was scary,
:57:19. > :57:22.the last three hurdles that appear, the way he attacks the hurdles,
:57:23. > :57:25.beautiful Trail Lake, so quick, Parchment looked like he would
:57:26. > :57:30.threaten, but that is a good run by Bascou on the far side. Very close
:57:31. > :57:32.for Bascou, my not have got the third place, I think there was a
:57:33. > :57:38.hold-up for the photograph, some opposition on the near side. It
:57:39. > :57:46.might be there. Look at the third place. That is a beautiful race. It
:57:47. > :57:55.could Bezy that got third. McLeod, 12.98, very good world lead.
:57:56. > :58:02.I guess it was a case of big shocks in Shanghai tonight. David Rudisha
:58:03. > :58:05.started his race poorly and never recovered. I think he will probably
:58:06. > :58:11.be business as usual next time we see him, but I'm not sure about easy
:58:12. > :58:17.and start Kejelcha, who did not pose a threat to Mo Farah in real Rio on
:58:18. > :58:25.the basis of straight but that performance. Maybe we're saved the
:58:26. > :58:29.best until the end, but McLeod, sub 13 seconds in the 110 hurdles, that
:58:30. > :58:34.was brilliant. Plenty more athletics come up in the BBC over the next
:58:35. > :58:50.week. On Friday there is the Manchester City games on BBC Two.
:58:51. > :58:53.That is all from the Shanghai Diamond League. John is next
:58:54. > :59:01.weekend. Goodbye.
