:00:50. > :00:54.Welcome to Zurich, a wet evening here for the penultimate Diamond

:00:54. > :00:58.League meeting, a glittering array of stars from the world of track-

:00:58. > :01:04.and-field including 14 world gold- medallists. There is one man who

:01:04. > :01:10.seems to get more attention than the next.

:01:10. > :01:16.The moment of truth has finally arrived.

:01:16. > :01:23.He is getting along in his stride. He is pulling away! He is going for

:01:23. > :01:31.the gold! Why did we ever doubt of the brilliance of Usain Bolt?

:01:31. > :01:36.The 200m final. The King of sprinting, a royal wave.

:01:36. > :01:46.But is a clean start. He is out of the blocks really well. A look at

:01:46. > :01:53.him go! Blake is not going to catch him! Bolt is going to do it again.

:01:53. > :02:02.He is just in comparable. The 4x100 metre relay. Let's see if

:02:02. > :02:09.he can finish it in style. Bolt is in the lead. Here he goes. Bailey

:02:10. > :02:16.has no chance. Bolt has gone away. It is a new world record! He

:02:16. > :02:21.smashes it to pieces. So full of talent. The greatest ever.

:02:21. > :02:28.Well, officially a legend, now. Denise Lewis and Colin Jackson are

:02:28. > :02:35.with me. It is not all about Bolt. We have got David Rudisha, and

:02:35. > :02:40.others. Bolt, coming here tonight, then Brussels, it is about giving

:02:40. > :02:45.back to the crowd. And he loves coming down here. I haven't seen

:02:45. > :02:49.him here for a while. Whenever he is in town, there is a show. There

:02:49. > :02:53.is a special something we all want to see. He is and necessarily gone

:02:53. > :02:57.-- going to go any quicker than he has gone all season. I don't think

:02:57. > :03:02.so. He is desperate to go home but he loves to entertain and he loves

:03:02. > :03:06.the crowd. When he is here, everyone is an honorary Jamaican.

:03:06. > :03:13.The tickets have sold out, you perform to many a time. Why is it

:03:13. > :03:17.so special? It is world class and it is what it means. The athletes

:03:17. > :03:20.enjoy being here because of the audience. There are very

:03:20. > :03:24.knowledgeable crowd. They are supporting and clapping and it is a

:03:24. > :03:34.very good atmosphere for the athletes. So expect special

:03:34. > :03:36.

:03:36. > :03:46.performances to my it. We could get one in the the 400m. Steve Cram and

:03:46. > :03:51.

:03:51. > :04:00.Paul Dickenson are in the One. Good evening everybody. Rhys

:04:00. > :04:10.Williams will beat in lane one. Javier Culson, then all -- Michael

:04:10. > :04:11.

:04:11. > :04:15.Tinsley. Then Angelo Taylor, and Omar Cisneros in lane eight. For

:04:15. > :04:20.Felix Sanchez, he had a quick trip back to the Dominican Republic. He

:04:20. > :04:25.had a fantastic reception. I chatted to him. He was a little

:04:25. > :04:35.tired. He has been based in Zurich since then. He has been resting. He

:04:35. > :04:38.

:04:38. > :04:46.knows the City's well. Javier Culson, he leads the Diamond League.

:04:46. > :04:56.It is double points. It is eight, four and two. But this man cannot

:04:56. > :04:58.

:04:58. > :05:06.be caught. He already has 16 points winners from the various racers,

:05:06. > :05:12.meaning winning your discipline across the Diamond -- Diamond

:05:12. > :05:22.League fixtures, you win an extra $40,000. Rhys Williams, he is on

:05:22. > :05:25.

:05:25. > :05:32.the inside. A tough draw for him. So, Sanchez against Culson. And

:05:32. > :05:36.Tinsley is just outside Culson in lane five. Sanchez can see

:05:36. > :05:40.everybody he wants to from lane three. It is wet and it hasn't

:05:40. > :05:50.stopped raining for the last four hours. They have been trying to get

:05:50. > :05:59.

:05:59. > :06:08.storms around the first bend. So he is the first to show. Culson got

:06:08. > :06:18.out quickly as well. Also Taylor going quickly. He maybe has a metre

:06:18. > :06:26.or two lead now. Down the back straight, Sanchez not so quick.

:06:26. > :06:31.Taylor has a metre lead. It will be these three. Tinsley know where.

:06:31. > :06:41.Now, Taylor. And Gordon starting to come through. And Sanchez finishing

:06:41. > :06:44.

:06:44. > :06:50.very quickly. Who will get this? Taylor get said. -- gets it. Done

:06:50. > :06:54.that home straight, it was dropping and changing, all over the place

:06:55. > :07:03.and Taylor, who looked as if he had given it away, came off it well

:07:03. > :07:08.again. Gordon was on his tail. But he was strong. And Taylor produces

:07:09. > :07:14.his best again. Culson is going to be disappointed, not only with us

:07:14. > :07:22.Olympics, but with finishing off here. But, Taylor, not bad at all.

:07:22. > :07:27.I can imagine him, he will probably want to run quicker, Angelo Taylor.

:07:27. > :07:33.We know he can run a lot faster than that. I expected him to come

:07:33. > :07:37.here and he wanted but a weather to show what he is made of. It is very

:07:37. > :07:42.typical end of the rain, in the hurdles, because the lights reflect

:07:42. > :07:46.on the track and it is difficult to see the corners. So a lot of these

:07:46. > :07:53.runners will have problems sustaining their links. There was

:07:53. > :07:59.so much chopping and changing. We all thought Jehue Gordon was going

:07:59. > :08:09.to do it, but Taylor said, I am strong this year, and he takes the

:08:09. > :08:10.

:08:10. > :08:14.victory. So, Taylor had enough to hold off Cisneros. The Olympic

:08:14. > :08:17.champion has to settle for 4th place, Felix Sanchez.

:08:17. > :08:27.There a pretty good start to the evening, but there is plenty more

:08:27. > :08:29.

:08:29. > :08:36.to come. The 800m record of David Rudisha was great, but can he go

:08:36. > :08:42.even faster here? Yohan Blake maybe Usain Bolt's best mate, but he is

:08:42. > :08:49.more than the bridesmaid. Can he blow away as strong 100m field

:08:49. > :08:59.tonight? Sanya Richards-Ross took the gold in London. She has some

:08:59. > :09:00.

:09:00. > :09:10.strong women on her heels here. Allyson Felix took three golds, but

:09:10. > :09:13.

:09:13. > :09:21.tonight she is going in the 100m. Great Britain's Grabarz is yet to

:09:21. > :09:28.take the title and the Bounty. And maybe a new GB record as well. And

:09:28. > :09:33.can Christine finish her season with a sub 50 run? She is up

:09:33. > :09:39.against her nemesis Sanya Richards- Ross. That is how the evening pans

:09:39. > :09:49.out for you. A very strong women's 100m coming up soon. We have got

:09:49. > :09:50.

:09:50. > :09:54.Carmelita Jeter, Allyson Felix, carol. And David -- David Rudisha

:09:54. > :09:59.has been talking about how fast he will go all week. Christine

:09:59. > :10:05.Ohuruogo against Sanya Richards- Ross in the 400m. And the men's

:10:05. > :10:14.200m with a certain Usain Bolt. And a great strong 5,000 metres caps

:10:14. > :10:21.off a brilliant evening. What are you looking forward to? I am

:10:21. > :10:28.looking forward to seeing bike in the 100m. Day go last year, he ran

:10:28. > :10:33.and 9.82. I am expecting the same. I am hoping he sets the track on

:10:33. > :10:37.fire. He ran so well, getting stronger and stronger. He is

:10:37. > :10:42.incredible. He seems to go from strength to strength. He has grown

:10:42. > :10:46.in stature, he is making a name for himself. David Rudisha, in the

:10:46. > :10:51.Olympic Games, the most stunning athletic performance. A world

:10:51. > :10:57.record. Everybody ran a season's best. It was the outstanding race,

:10:57. > :11:07.and he says he has more. He thinks he can go perhaps under one minute

:11:07. > :11:08.

:11:08. > :11:14.40 seconds, but he is 1.50 thinking 1.5. I think it is a great

:11:14. > :11:19.opportunity for him to reconnect with the crowd. Unlike Bolt, he is

:11:19. > :11:27.unsung hero for me. He doesn't get the recognition I think he deserves.

:11:27. > :11:36.That was a stunning race in London. We have indeed got and Ryszard and,

:11:36. > :11:45.in that race, and we have got others as well. -- Michael Sargent.

:11:45. > :11:50.We have some 100m heats. What did you make of this race? It was a

:11:50. > :12:00.solid race. And second place there in what was a decent field, with

:12:00. > :12:01.

:12:01. > :12:04.some young Jamaicans, Jimmy has had an amazing season. Heat is the one

:12:04. > :12:09.to watch for British sprinting. The man that can take this forward.

:12:09. > :12:15.has got to get under 10 seconds next year for. That is the aim. But

:12:15. > :12:20.he has learned he can be one of the best. Some of the very best female

:12:20. > :12:28.sprinters on the planet are about to take part in a very strong

:12:28. > :12:33.women's 100m. Paul Dickenson will call this one. Shelly-Ann Fraser-

:12:33. > :12:36.Pryce on the right hand side, wearing of the Blues signature vest

:12:36. > :12:42.that says she has the Diamond League leader.

:12:42. > :12:48.This is the athlete on the inside, Ezinne Okparaebo, the Norwegian.

:12:48. > :12:56.She is an Olympic semi-finalist, too. Carer Stewart, always there or

:12:56. > :13:02.thereabouts although she did not have the greatest of years. But

:13:02. > :13:10.carol, double Olympic champion, one of the all-time greats. She is back

:13:10. > :13:18.in the field. And Allyson Felix, who came away with those three gold

:13:18. > :13:28.medals. In the 200, the 4x100 metres and the 4x400 metres. And

:13:28. > :13:34.this woman, Carmelita Jeter, unbeaten since the Olympic Games.

:13:34. > :13:44.10.78 she has ran this year. Trinidad and Tobago, Kelly-Ann

:13:44. > :13:44.

:13:44. > :13:50.Baptiste. A class act as always. Blessing Okagbare, very close to

:13:50. > :14:00.the African record this year is this Nigerian, only to hundreds of

:14:00. > :14:00.

:14:01. > :14:10.a second outside the continental record. Ivet Lalova, the Olympic --

:14:11. > :14:11.

:14:11. > :15:03.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds

:15:03. > :15:09.Baptiste. If it is, she has been running well all this season, and

:15:10. > :15:19.she was looking forward to doing this. That is a clear false start

:15:20. > :15:24.

:15:24. > :15:28.there from her. She will be very just waiting for someone to give

:15:28. > :15:38.her the acknowledgement. It has come up on our computer, she was

:15:38. > :15:40.

:15:40. > :15:45.well under the threshold of 0.1 seconds. That is Jeter, not looking

:15:45. > :15:49.concerned at all, she was OK as was Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce. They know

:15:49. > :15:53.there is a lot -- lot riding on this race financially and for

:15:53. > :16:01.bragging rights, as I was saying earlier. Carmelita Jeter is

:16:01. > :16:07.unbeaten since the Olympic final. Felix, in between them, she has run

:16:07. > :16:11.10.89 seconds this season. Kelly- Ann Baptiste there, it was plainly

:16:11. > :16:17.a false start, Colin. No two ways about it, it does not matter who

:16:17. > :16:21.you are, the great and the mighty always suffer from the false start.

:16:21. > :16:26.It happens in Daegu, in the same boat -- Usain Bolt suffered from it

:16:26. > :16:34.and he had to walk as well. A very met -- brave man disqualified Usain

:16:34. > :16:43.Bolt. And he was British, Mr Alan Bell. So we have lost Kelly-Ann

:16:43. > :16:48.Baptiste. Carmelita Jeter. Cool, calm and collected. Shelly-Ann

:16:48. > :16:58.Fraser-Pryce, always a brilliant starter. And Allyson Felix, showed

:16:58. > :17:02.

:17:02. > :17:07.tremendous form in London, albeit start but so does Carmelita Jeter.

:17:07. > :17:13.Fraser-Pryce is absolutely flying. This is a real turnaround. Shelly-

:17:13. > :17:17.Ann Fraser-Pryce get it, Jeter in second, Allyson Felix in third,

:17:17. > :17:23.10.83. Any suggestion that the great Jamaican was injured, they

:17:23. > :17:27.were totally wrong. She absolutely dominated the opposition there.

:17:27. > :17:32.Including the lady that she beat in that Olympic 100 metre final in

:17:32. > :17:38.London. Another great run from Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce. Surely,

:17:38. > :17:42.surely one of the all-time greats. Yes, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce will

:17:42. > :17:46.be relieved to get back race at of the way. The most important thing

:17:46. > :17:50.for her, she had an electric start and she had to deliver that to give

:17:50. > :17:55.herself the right chance. She got ahead of the Heathfield and kept

:17:55. > :18:01.going. Everyone knows that once she gets a good distance ahead, it is

:18:01. > :18:04.going to get difficult to close her in. Look at this, at 20 metres, she

:18:04. > :18:08.was already one meet up and she just keeps going away from the

:18:08. > :18:14.field. She called the Mall -- she called them all off guard. They

:18:14. > :18:20.thought she was injured, she had the strapping on. She proved them

:18:20. > :18:26.wrong. 11 seconds would not be a laugh at. A great -- 11 seconds

:18:26. > :18:30.would not be enough. A great performance, 10.83 into a wind.

:18:30. > :18:36.Every sprinter will now think, I am going to put my mind to it and

:18:36. > :18:42.deliver a great performance. Carmelita Jeter takes second place

:18:42. > :18:49.with Allyson Felix in third. Allyson Felix was a very, very

:18:49. > :18:54.close third. 11.02, for the third place. No doubt about the winner,

:18:54. > :18:59.Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce. 10.83, and she is the Diamond League champion

:18:59. > :19:06.here in Zurich. She made that look quite easy.

:19:06. > :19:10.Didn't she just? I AM surprised, I have to say, having seen Jeter in

:19:10. > :19:14.Birmingham and Switzerland, I thought she had this surprise. How

:19:14. > :19:20.wrong was I! We heard a rumour that she was not racing, she had had

:19:20. > :19:24.late checks and she was not fit. A bit of strapping but nothing wrong.

:19:24. > :19:29.Nothing wrong and Colin intimated that. Sometimes athletes hear

:19:29. > :19:33.whispers, Jetta might have heard that she was not running, it was

:19:33. > :19:37.really about those two in the 100 metres this year but to have got to

:19:37. > :19:44.stay focused. I was very surprised that Jeter was so far behind.

:19:44. > :19:49.have been a few field events so far this evening. Here is a round-up.

:19:49. > :19:54.Yesterday, the women's and men's shot but took place in the station

:19:54. > :20:00.in Zurich, it has become a regular feature. Valerie Adams won

:20:00. > :20:07.comfortably. She was a long way, the furthest distance ever in the

:20:07. > :20:15.Zurich meeting. Diamond League champion as well. As far as the men

:20:15. > :20:25.were concerned, it was a turnaround in form for Reece Hopper. -- Reese

:20:25. > :20:25.

:20:25. > :20:30.Hoffa. He dominated the opposition. He was ahead of Ryan Whiting and

:20:30. > :20:36.Tomasz Majewski the Olympic champion.

:20:36. > :20:40.Here in the stadium today, pretty awful conditions. Sandra Perkovic

:20:40. > :20:46.in the women's discus, the Olympic champion, did not have to wait long

:20:46. > :20:52.before the Croatian came into some kind of form. It was in the first

:20:52. > :20:56.round. 63 metres 97, and nobody could get close. So a win for the

:20:56. > :21:02.diamond lead and the individual competition here, with that

:21:02. > :21:07.distance. It was Croatia's first ever Olympic athletic champion.

:21:07. > :21:11.There was a bit of a surprise in the men's triple jump, a Fabrizio

:21:11. > :21:16.Donato, who we saw with the European title earlier on this year.

:21:16. > :21:23.He sprung out to 70 metres 29 in terrible conditions. He beat the

:21:23. > :21:29.Olympic champion Christian Taylor. Christian Taylor won the diamond

:21:29. > :21:34.lead, he was on the possible and utterly -- back event. No doubt

:21:34. > :21:39.about the winner here in Zurich, a very old and wet Italian!

:21:39. > :21:43.It is a shame to tell you, the rain is still coming down. Not because

:21:43. > :21:46.we do not mind getting wet, but David Rudisha who is going for a

:21:46. > :21:53.world record, he has publicly declared he does not like the rain

:21:53. > :21:58.and bad could hamper his efforts to get a world record. It should not

:21:58. > :22:03.cause problems for Robbie Grabarz, who has had an incredible 12 months.

:22:03. > :22:07.He had his funding taken away 12 months ago, he had to look at

:22:07. > :22:16.whether he wanting to take on, he went into the Olympic final and has

:22:16. > :22:20.As soon as I started the winter, I was determined to make the games,

:22:20. > :22:26.whatever it took I would get there. Then I opened up my state -- first

:22:26. > :22:30.competition and thought, I can do more and just make the games. I

:22:30. > :22:36.made a personal best in my first competition, I thought, this is the

:22:36. > :22:39.start. I have not looked back since. Is there anything you can put your

:22:39. > :22:47.finger on, that changed? What turned you into an Olympic

:22:47. > :22:53.medallist? About 2011 was the turnaround, -- it was a bad 2011. I

:22:53. > :22:59.was 23, 24, I thought, you are not a junior or senior, you have no

:22:59. > :23:04.excuses. I knew I was better than the performances. I had a drop off

:23:04. > :23:08.or restoring classic cars, which was my dream job, and I thought,

:23:08. > :23:14.shall I give track and field one last go? I thought, give your dream

:23:14. > :23:18.job up, so you have to give track and field a real go. It changed my

:23:18. > :23:23.mentality which physically changed my training, because it was a bit

:23:23. > :23:26.better and my mental approach was spot on all winter. Then I have

:23:26. > :23:30.reaped the wards this summer. I am very selfish, don't care about

:23:30. > :23:36.anyone else, it is out of my control so why waste time trying to

:23:37. > :23:40.beat people? If you pick someone else, I would to beat Jesse because

:23:40. > :23:47.I want to win the diamond lead, but I cannot focus all of my attention

:23:47. > :23:52.on that, because that would be bad. It is just keep pretty dense, keep

:23:52. > :24:00.my focus. -- it is keep the routines, keep my focus. Incredible

:24:00. > :24:05.what you can do when you focus and put your mind to him, he is now

:24:05. > :24:11.serious and look what happened. is a great story, a great moral

:24:11. > :24:19.about concentration, focus and commitment. We have known, his

:24:19. > :24:23.coach, he is fantastic. They have a brilliant chemistry. They have

:24:23. > :24:27.agreed relationship, he has told him to commit and 11 and he was

:24:27. > :24:34.outstanding. Get a bronze medal in the Olympic games and you could end

:24:34. > :24:44.up winning here as well. The noise around he wishes on going, it is

:24:44. > :24:53.

:24:53. > :25:00.brilliant, it is focused on the it look what, but the big names are on

:25:00. > :25:09.the second page. Milcah Chemos, she was favourite in the Olympics, she

:25:09. > :25:13.finished 4th. She leads the league. A combination of results, and will

:25:13. > :25:17.not confuse you until, let's see what happens. Essentially, Milcah

:25:17. > :25:27.Chemos, she is wearing the blue number, she is moving into 5th

:25:27. > :25:28.

:25:28. > :25:34.place. If you include the pacemaker. So, she needs to come in the top

:25:34. > :25:37.three, and then she'll be fine. Milcah Chemos, going into the

:25:37. > :25:40.Olympics, many people thought she would have won the gold medal

:25:41. > :25:46.except she was spiked at the Kenyan trials and that gave her a real

:25:46. > :25:51.problem. Missed a bit of training, miss the Paris diamond lead, and

:25:51. > :25:58.then dropped out of Stockholm, which was one by the Olympic

:25:58. > :26:03.champion. She was a late withdrawal tonight. They have ignored the

:26:03. > :26:07.pacemaker largely. That is because, I guess, they know that you're free

:26:08. > :26:10.of them have got the chance if they win here tonight, -- two or three

:26:10. > :26:16.of them, have got a chance if they win here tonight, it does not

:26:16. > :26:21.matter about the time, it is just the placing. It was quite quick at

:26:21. > :26:26.the one kilometre mark. The Ukrainian pacemaker took them

:26:26. > :26:32.through at just over three minutes. At one point, she was on a world

:26:32. > :26:37.record pace. She dropped off that pace. The Sharapova, the Russian

:26:37. > :26:42.who won the Olympic title, she was entered for this race but she was a

:26:42. > :26:46.late withdrawal. So it will not be a repeat of the sort of form that

:26:47. > :26:52.we saw from her in the London Olympic games. Or the main

:26:53. > :26:57.contenders are there. The pace is building and this should be a quick

:26:58. > :27:03.race. When she was fit and racing well, Milcah Chemos to try to

:27:03. > :27:07.dominate these races and be strong at the end. She has not been the

:27:07. > :27:12.same athlete since she picked up that injury. She may be trying to

:27:12. > :27:21.come back into some better form. They are all there. Habiba Ghribi

:27:21. > :27:27.is looking a little bit tired tonight. Sophia a surfer will be

:27:27. > :27:33.wanting to stay close as well. -- Sofia Assefa. Mr still all to play

:27:33. > :27:41.for. British supporters will be watching

:27:41. > :27:46.the progress of an Olympic bronze medallist Robbie Grabarz. This is

:27:46. > :27:50.only to meet the 25. Lobby has been going pretty well in awful

:27:50. > :28:00.conditions and sheep -- and he does it once again. That gave it a

:28:00. > :28:01.

:28:01. > :28:11.little flick but he is still there. Better mesh Mader of Ethiopia is

:28:11. > :28:19.still reading -- is still leading. Sofia Assefa could win this, she

:28:19. > :28:23.has on -- she has had seven points. If she was in third place, she

:28:23. > :28:33.would win the diamond race. So Milcah Chemos knows that a top to

:28:33. > :28:33.

:28:33. > :28:36.finish could guarantee her a prize. Two laps to go. Habiba Ghribi is

:28:37. > :28:44.trying to get back. Milcah Chemos is looking very comfortable is

:28:44. > :28:52.second place. She has always got a very economical action. No problem

:28:52. > :28:58.with going over the barriers. There are four athletes there. They are

:28:58. > :29:02.all have -- they all have a very good shout. No problems over that

:29:02. > :29:12.barrier. The conditions, I have to emphasise this, are absolutely

:29:12. > :29:13.

:29:13. > :29:18.awful. The landing and take-off, it is quite treacherous. She has not

:29:18. > :29:28.been challenged. Milcah Chemos is now beginning to take it on. Milcah

:29:28. > :29:34.Chemos will be here, Sofia Assefa or, she gets the better of the

:29:34. > :29:38.Ethiopian. Milcah Chemos out of the water jump, takes it really well.

:29:38. > :29:43.Generally bitters runners would not mind this, a cool evening with no

:29:43. > :29:50.wind. -- distance runners. But the fact that there is so much water...

:29:50. > :29:54.That is what happens! Milcah Chemos she clipped the top of the hurdle

:29:54. > :30:00.and went down, that is her Diamond race gone. I did she got stood on

:30:00. > :30:07.as well. We will pick that up afterwards. That is unfortunate for

:30:07. > :30:12.her. At the front, the Ethiopian is still leading and Sheikh -- said

:30:13. > :30:22.the SFO must realise she has got a huge opportunity. -- Sophia asked

:30:23. > :30:28.

:30:28. > :30:35.if there must realise she has got a negotiate this last 200m. That is a

:30:36. > :30:40.cracking finish. Assefa had the chance of taking this title anyway

:30:40. > :30:48.but now she knows it is hers. I am sure she has realised what has

:30:48. > :30:54.happened. The question is, would Chemos finished in the top two?

:30:54. > :31:00.That barrier, over it safely. Just a little stumble for Assefa, but

:31:00. > :31:08.she comes away to take it. The time is not that quick, outside 9.2

:31:08. > :31:14.minutes, but she wins the Steeplechase, and Ayalew is in

:31:14. > :31:22.third. What a shame that Chemos, she is just coming across the line

:31:22. > :31:26.now, a horrible fall. We were just talking about the conditions, and

:31:26. > :31:36.we were almost tempting fate. I am not sure she slipped. She hit the

:31:36. > :31:36.

:31:36. > :31:41.top of the hurdle, she misjudged it. It was the commentator's curse.

:31:41. > :31:51.Assefa put a lot of distance between herself and the rest. If we

:31:51. > :31:54.watch this again... It wasn't on that occasion. But some of the

:31:54. > :32:00.pretty wet conditions here in Zurich by the very nature of the

:32:00. > :32:08.event, it is wet. It is here. She caught her trailing need right on

:32:08. > :32:18.top. She got stood on as well. It took the wind out of her sails. A

:32:18. > :32:20.

:32:20. > :32:27.very good race. And Sofia Assefa is You made that look easy. I tried! I

:32:27. > :32:33.came out here to look my 100%. My quad was acting up, and I want to

:32:33. > :32:35.say thank-you to my medical team. They actually take I leg before I

:32:35. > :32:40.came out here today and I was really nervous about what would

:32:40. > :32:47.happen but I trusted them to deliver, and I am grateful I came

:32:47. > :32:53.out and did my best. We heard you had pulled out, but what is wrong

:32:53. > :32:58.with the leg? I have no idea. I am working with the doctors, so

:32:58. > :33:05.hopefully we will sorted out. I was never out but I was contemplating,

:33:05. > :33:09.but I was never out. I don't know how have you heard that, but I am

:33:09. > :33:14.excited I got the chance to raise. And I am looking forward to next

:33:14. > :33:24.year, because this is my last race, so what a way to end the season.

:33:24. > :33:26.

:33:26. > :33:36.organisers had taken her up off the starting list. Anyway, picking over

:33:36. > :33:42.the result of that Steeplechase, Assefa is the champion tonight. It

:33:42. > :33:52.is very unfortunate for Ayalew. A very unfortunate end to this season

:33:52. > :33:55.

:33:55. > :33:59.David Rudisha warming up for the 800m. He didn't go back to Kenya,

:33:59. > :34:05.he has declared he wants to go for another world record. And what a

:34:05. > :34:15.magnificent night it was when he won the gold. Personal bests and

:34:15. > :34:18.

:34:18. > :34:25.season bests all round. Let's Olympic Games in track and field.

:34:25. > :34:29.Let see what he has in store for us tonight. David Rudisha, as ever,

:34:29. > :34:36.loves to be at the front. A beautiful running action. It is

:34:36. > :34:45.following the script everybody thought would happen. And down the

:34:46. > :34:49.back straight, can they hang on? Look at this. Kitum is moving into

:34:49. > :34:54.third, Andrew Osagie is trying to come in. It is all about David

:34:54. > :35:02.Rudisha striding away to become the Olympic champion. How quick will it

:35:02. > :35:12.be? That is the world record! Unbelievable. David Rudisha is the

:35:12. > :35:17.

:35:17. > :35:27.Olympic champion, the greatest ever I saw the guys coming behind. And

:35:27. > :35:28.

:35:28. > :35:31.the last 200, it was 26.6, and if I think I can improve, I think I can

:35:32. > :35:37.low of the record a little bit. When you are running 800, for

:35:37. > :35:43.example, you know you have to think, like, the 400 is gone, so let me

:35:43. > :35:51.start the way I start my 400, pushing down to 300, you start

:35:51. > :35:55.thinking, how do I normally start for 300. And down to 200. Etc. When

:35:55. > :36:01.you reach a certain point, you forget the past. You start thinking

:36:01. > :36:07.about what you need to do from there. A nice even pace, then push

:36:07. > :36:17.on at 300, push on at 200 and you come down the home straight. What

:36:17. > :36:25.

:36:25. > :36:35.time will you run? I think... My aim is to try a 140 1/2. -- 1.40

:36:35. > :36:35.

:36:35. > :36:41.0.5. I think it is possible to run 1.4. I know many people are talking

:36:41. > :36:46.about going under 100 seconds, but to take under a second in an 800,

:36:46. > :36:51.that world record is becoming very difficult to beat.

:36:51. > :36:55.Well, he is just the most beautiful athlete to watch. His style is just

:36:56. > :37:00.great. And hearing him bisect the race, hearing him how he approaches

:37:00. > :37:05.the world record. He is incredible and I will never forget that race.

:37:05. > :37:09.It was almost like a time trial, which we have never seen in an

:37:09. > :37:14.Olympic Games before. He has calculated, he knew exactly what he

:37:14. > :37:20.needed to do. He brought it home and he was in the best race, he

:37:20. > :37:26.made the best race. And it was the same night as Bolt was running his

:37:26. > :37:32.race. But it was the performance of the Games. Lord Coe felt the same

:37:32. > :37:36.way. We have seen so many races over the years, but that was the

:37:36. > :37:42.race of the championships. I asked Steve earlier whether he enjoyed

:37:42. > :37:49.racing here. What did you tell me? Tell me your time? I can't remember,

:37:49. > :37:53.it was that long ago! I did have a good 800 here one night. It is a

:37:53. > :37:58.great place to race. David Rudisha is looking forward to it but the

:37:58. > :38:02.weather is a factor. It is not as warm as he would like, but he has

:38:02. > :38:12.been preparing for this, he has been training in Germany, no race

:38:12. > :38:17.

:38:17. > :38:27.since the Olympic Games and he is squinty eye it like everybody else,

:38:27. > :38:33.but it is a good race. We do have Michael Rimmer and Andrew Osagie,

:38:33. > :38:38.and Andrew was in the 800m final. We have Duane Solomon of the United

:38:38. > :38:45.States, then the 17-year-old from Kenya, and then David Rudisha, and

:38:45. > :38:50.of course his running mate Sammy Tangui. He has asked for a pace of

:38:50. > :38:54.48.5 from Sammy Tangui. He says he likes his rhythm. He says he needs

:38:54. > :39:00.a bit of space and then he wants him to drop out at 400, then it is

:39:00. > :39:05.up to him. Here we go. The crowd will play their part as they always

:39:05. > :39:10.do. How many of the others will commit and follow, go with him?

:39:10. > :39:20.That remains to be seen. Many were rewarded with great times at the

:39:20. > :39:20.

:39:20. > :39:25.Olympic final by chasing Rudisha. He said to me, I did it well, but

:39:25. > :39:32.what I did not do well was the 700 metres, which is what he wants to

:39:32. > :39:42.improve on. He thinks Sammy Tangui is the good man to start the pace.

:39:42. > :39:42.

:39:42. > :39:48.He is looking behind. That is crazy. What is he doing? I think Sammy

:39:48. > :39:53.Tangui, he took a look behind him to see where David Rudisha was.

:39:53. > :39:58.That is a bit slower than David Rudisha wanted. So the race is on.

:39:58. > :40:02.Just looking back through the field and Andrew Osagie is three from the

:40:02. > :40:07.back at the moment. But David Rudisha, it is all about him and

:40:07. > :40:12.the clock. He doesn't look as smooth to me as he did in the

:40:12. > :40:18.Olympics. Down that back straight, he is not looking that good. That

:40:18. > :40:27.is way too slow. He has got to win this race, never mind the world

:40:27. > :40:32.record. He has got the American, Duane Solomon. And he is taking on

:40:32. > :40:38.the big man! He has beaten him before. And Muhammed Aman is going

:40:39. > :40:43.to do it again. He is the only one who has beaten Rudisha before. He

:40:43. > :40:51.has sprung a surprise. He takes it. Because of that, he will also take

:40:51. > :40:59.the diamond race because you don't see you boss in all of the diamond

:40:59. > :41:04.lead. Aman was unlucky in the fact he committed himself in the Olympic

:41:04. > :41:13.final. And you could just tell, starting on the start line, he

:41:13. > :41:19.wasn't quite up for this tonight. Any athlete should not say I don't

:41:19. > :41:26.like it when the weather is not good. But the pacemaking was

:41:26. > :41:31.shocking. And then Aman ran his own race. And his confidence is

:41:31. > :41:40.building and building. And that is a personal best for him. That shows

:41:40. > :41:48.what he is capable of. Well, Muhammed Aman, I bet he wishes he

:41:48. > :41:57.could turn the clock back now! We think that Andrew Osagie came 6th.

:41:57. > :42:04.In fact, he finished in 5th. Michael Rimmer was in 6th. But Aman

:42:04. > :42:10.truly made David Rudisha pay down the home straight and you don't see

:42:10. > :42:17.that very often. AA man six metres out started punching the air. I've

:42:17. > :42:26.got the great man. You will not see that very often at all anywhere in

:42:26. > :42:31.the world. That is why we like athletics. Nothing ever is a

:42:31. > :42:41.foregone conclusion. Well, that is the new national record for

:42:41. > :42:44.

:42:44. > :42:49.Ethiopia. It equals the world junior record set earlier this year.

:42:49. > :42:55.Leonard Kirwa Kosencha got the third place. Andrew Osagie gets the

:42:55. > :43:05.5th. Because he gets eight points in this final race, Aman takes the

:43:05. > :43:09.

:43:09. > :43:19.Diamond League, $40,000 to boot. Back to the High Jump. The American

:43:19. > :43:30.

:43:30. > :43:35.is the next athlete to drive. -- to Williams, well... If Robbie Grabarz

:43:35. > :43:41.can beat the American, he will win the diamond lead, and the biggest

:43:41. > :43:45.trek he has ever seen. If Jesse Williams, who started off the

:43:45. > :43:55.season so very well, leading the world rankings for so long... He

:43:55. > :44:01.

:44:01. > :44:07.suffered an injury earlier on... Oh, conditions we've got here. It is

:44:07. > :44:14.not just wet, but it is cold as well. Compare that to Lausanne,

:44:14. > :44:20.just over a week ago, when they were jumping 2.39. It gives you a

:44:20. > :44:24.good idea of how difficult it is for all of these athletes. So,

:44:24. > :44:32.Robbie Grabarz, he seems to be getting better and better as time

:44:32. > :44:37.goes on. He has talked about his attitude a lot. And that is the

:44:37. > :44:41.difference, partly, but he is also a better athlete. He is showing he

:44:41. > :44:50.can do these competitions well. That is what sets you apart from

:44:50. > :45:00.the rest. This is not for gold medal. But it is an important jump.

:45:00. > :45:04.

:45:05. > :45:13.A clean slate so far... And two David, conditions would Bob, but

:45:13. > :45:19.was it too quick? It was not that bad, but the pace was OK. I told

:45:19. > :45:25.Sammy to go around 49, because the track was wet and it was raining,

:45:25. > :45:30.so I told him not to push too hard. I don't feel good when the track is

:45:30. > :45:34.a wet and raining. This is it, you can go back home to Kenya, see the

:45:34. > :45:42.family and enjoy the expense of being Olympic champion. Of course,

:45:42. > :45:52.I am happy to accomplish my goals. I just go back and be with my

:45:52. > :46:00.

:46:00. > :46:03.taking part in a very, very soggy stadium in the pole vault. Essex

:46:03. > :46:08.beagles finest, Steve Lewis, the British record holder who finished

:46:08. > :46:13.5th in the Olympic Games, -- Olympic Games, which no British

:46:13. > :46:19.pole-vaulter has done before, made five metres and 55 at the second

:46:19. > :46:27.attempt and then ran to get back under some sort of shelter. It was

:46:27. > :46:37.terrible conditions. Only one man vast -- must have them, the Olympic

:46:37. > :46:40.

:46:40. > :46:47.a height that Stephen Lewis attended as well along with four

:46:47. > :46:52.others. The Frenchman went over at the first attempt so were safely in

:46:52. > :46:57.first place. Lewis on this occasion found it all too much. He has

:46:57. > :47:03.raised his British record height this year to five metres 82.

:47:03. > :47:13.Nevertheless, it has been a very good year for him. He finished

:47:13. > :47:18.

:47:18. > :47:23.The men's 100 metres coming up, Yohan Blake has the stage to

:47:23. > :47:27.himself. Usain Bolt is going in the 200 metres. Four Blake, he is

:47:27. > :47:31.definitely not slacking off, if anything he is getting quicker.

:47:31. > :47:36.have worked really hard, I do not just work for the first blast of

:47:36. > :47:44.the Olympics, I worked after -- after as well. The dominance in

:47:44. > :47:49.training that I use, it is going to the end of the season. It is paying

:47:50. > :47:55.off now. What sort of race are you expecting? Routine, according to

:47:55. > :48:00.plan, just execute what my coach told me to, what we sit and talk

:48:00. > :48:05.about. God speed everything will go according to plan. I like to

:48:05. > :48:13.surprise people. I like when the commentators say, while! What with

:48:13. > :48:23.the -- or what would surprise you? What time I could give me? I am not

:48:23. > :48:27.

:48:27. > :48:37.going to give you a time. I like to behind Usain Bolt and equal with

:48:37. > :49:05.

:49:05. > :49:15.have run 9.8 but not won a medal in a major championship. He finished

:49:15. > :49:16.

:49:16. > :49:21.4th in the Olympic final. He was drawn next to Yohan Blake. When he

:49:21. > :49:26.won the Switzerland Diamond League race just a few days ago, it he ran

:49:26. > :49:36.9.69, into a very slight headwind. Conditions here are much wetter and

:49:36. > :49:56.

:49:56. > :50:03.the wind is swirling round the looking very carefully, it looked

:50:03. > :50:09.like Tyson Gay. But a couple of Attlee's reacted before the gun. --

:50:09. > :50:13.a couple of athletes. Tyson, yes, he is the man. He encouraged

:50:13. > :50:22.everybody else to move. I think the marksman could walk over to him

:50:22. > :50:28.with that dreaded red and black sign. You just get the impression,

:50:28. > :50:36.looking at Tyson Gay, that perhaps he knows there is a problem. No

:50:36. > :50:45.problem at all with Yohan Blake. Now, where is he going? He is going

:50:45. > :50:51.to lane five. It is goodbye to Tyson Gay. Tyson is trying to say

:50:51. > :50:55.that there is noise. But I do not think here in Zurich they are going

:50:55. > :50:59.to let him get away with it. They have a job to do, and they need to

:50:59. > :51:04.decide that he will have to walk, but he is still shaking his head.

:51:04. > :51:07.The crowd of whistling, they do not want him to go, we do not want him

:51:07. > :51:17.to go but the rules are the rules. Let's see how they deal with this

:51:17. > :51:22.

:51:22. > :51:27.situation. A gentleman is heading over to lane five. Christophe

:51:27. > :51:32.Lemaitre does not seem bothered, Yohan Blake is out of the picture.

:51:32. > :51:37.It was clearly a false start. I do not think in a situation like this,

:51:37. > :51:43.there is any point at all at complaining about something he can

:51:43. > :51:47.or cannot here. It seems like the officials have made their statement.

:51:47. > :51:52.They have encouraged him to leave the track. I think that is a good

:51:53. > :51:59.thing. Well, the race has lost a bit of its flavour, a bit of its

:51:59. > :52:09.spice. Yohan Blake, just on his own there, looking very cool, calm and

:52:09. > :52:18.

:52:18. > :52:22.you think, where did he get the was not in the Olympic Games, he

:52:22. > :52:32.was dropped by his Olympic Committee because he said he

:52:32. > :52:40.

:52:40. > :52:47.flouted the rules by leading the a fantastic start from the Jamaican.

:52:47. > :52:54.Ryan Bailey of the USA is there, but it is Yohan Blake, all the way.

:52:54. > :53:01.A very routine 9.76 seconds, my goodness. 1.4 metres per second,

:53:01. > :53:06.wind. Absolutely fantastic, Colin, what do you say? It is a chilly

:53:06. > :53:12.night here. The crowd are all in jackets, but Yohan Blake still

:53:41. > :53:44.metres, 28 centimetres. Jesse Williams, the American, has not

:54:23. > :54:27.is used to the wet conditions. was at Birmingham last week, he was

:54:27. > :54:30.the last person to leave the stadium. People want to chat, he

:54:30. > :54:35.loves what is happening to him at the moment with the athletes, all

:54:35. > :54:39.the attention he is getting. He is certainly, pardon the pun, rising

:54:39. > :54:49.to the occasion! In these conditions, that might be good

:54:49. > :54:56.

:54:56. > :55:06.meeting record, the fastest run ever seen by the Zurich crowd. 9.76.

:55:06. > :55:08.

:55:08. > :55:14.Nesta Carter=his season's best. And A great run from Blake, it is

:55:14. > :55:19.getting chilly. Last time, it was a warm and balmy evening. How much

:55:19. > :55:25.quicker can he go? Having seen him, I think he can really challenge the

:55:25. > :55:30.world record. He seems to be able to run in any condition. He got out

:55:30. > :55:36.superbly well tonight. Already, from this point, he had won the

:55:36. > :55:42.weight -- run the race. He was strong, at his nickname is the

:55:42. > :55:50.beast because he tears the trek up. Once he is into his running no one

:55:50. > :55:53.camp touch him. Anything sympathise -- any sympathy for Tyson Gay?

:55:53. > :55:58.There was a loud heartbeat sound around the stadium to build up the

:55:58. > :56:01.tension. Identity to make excuses for someone as experienced as he is.

:56:01. > :56:06.-- I do not think you can make excuses. That would have made the

:56:06. > :56:10.race exciting, so it is unfortunate, but he was out. Christine Ohuruogu

:56:10. > :56:14.coming up in the 400 metres. She seems to have had a little bit of

:56:14. > :56:18.time to reflect on her silver medal. She looked up so desperately

:56:18. > :56:22.disappointed to lose her Olympic crown. Overall when she looks back

:56:22. > :56:26.on this season, do you think she should feel, actually she did

:56:26. > :56:30.everything she could do in London and should not be disappointed?

:56:30. > :56:34.think so. But the mind of an athlete is something different. You

:56:34. > :56:38.can never really get into that mindset. But you are right, she

:56:38. > :56:42.should be extremely delighted with what she has achieved. 12 months

:56:42. > :56:46.ago, it did not even look possible that she would be in an Olympic

:56:46. > :56:55.final and she was outstanding. She will have her work cut out tonight,

:56:55. > :57:00.it is a fierce a field. Amantle Montsho, and Sanya Richards-Ross.

:57:00. > :57:10.That is coming up soon, but Robbie Grabarz is going in well at the

:57:10. > :57:12.

:57:12. > :57:18.to have cleared to meet his 28, which takes him much closer to that

:57:18. > :57:28.$40,000 cheque. This is the Olympic champion, Ivan Ukhov. Third and

:57:28. > :57:29.

:57:29. > :57:33.final attempt. Well clear. Well, Jesse Williams certainly knows the

:57:33. > :57:37.pressure is on. He has got a chance of winning the Diamond League, the

:57:37. > :57:42.only man close enough to Robbie Grabarz. He has passed his third

:57:42. > :57:49.and final attempt at 228. So we will see the bar price to two

:57:49. > :57:54.metres and 31, with four athletes left in the competition.

:57:54. > :58:03.A great high-jump competition continuing. Conditions up getting a

:58:03. > :58:13.little worse. No more rain, but it is certainly chillier. The Olympic

:58:13. > :58:26.

:58:26. > :58:33.champion at 400 metres hurdles a Hong Raghu in Birmingham recently,

:58:33. > :58:37.is on the eastern -- Christine Ohuruogu. I do not know anyone who

:58:37. > :58:42.has done more interviews than Sanya Richards riots. She is always good

:58:42. > :58:46.to chat to. -- Sanya Richards-Ross. She is looking forward to going

:58:46. > :58:51.home, according to some people in a hotel. One more big performance

:58:51. > :58:56.required but she might be a little bit vulnerable tonight. She ran a

:58:56. > :59:04.good 200 metres in Budapest. She won the Stockholm Diamond League,

:59:04. > :59:10.which Christine was third in. Richards Ross had a shot over 200.

:59:10. > :59:20.Christine went to Birmingham and finished second to Rosemarie Whyte.

:59:20. > :59:28.

:59:28. > :59:32.The first time the three medallists really needs to try and stay with

:59:32. > :59:38.the Sanya Richards-Ross as much as possible. She has already started

:59:38. > :59:43.really well and made up some ground on Amantle Montsho. Antonia clever

:59:43. > :59:51.chap care has started well as well. They are gliding down the back

:59:51. > :59:57.straight, Amantle Montsho will probably fade. Christine is not in

:59:57. > :00:01.this. She has got round to the top bend, but she looks really out of

:00:01. > :00:06.this. It is Amantle Montsho, Sanya Richards-Ross. Rosemarie Whyte is

:00:06. > :00:09.going well. The Jamaican has another cracking run. Here comes

:00:09. > :00:14.Sanya Richards-Ross, finishing quickly. She might have enough to

:00:14. > :00:18.get past, she will do. Sanya Richards-Ross get there ahead of a

:00:18. > :00:21.Amantle Montsho, Rosemarie Whyte, Christine Ohuruogu is at the back

:00:21. > :00:27.of the field, completely out of sorts. Quite a few tired athletes

:00:27. > :00:37.there, and Sanya Richards-Ross has just had enough. Let's go back to

:00:37. > :00:53.

:00:53. > :01:02.Jesse Williams. He has got to go passed on his third attempt at 2.28.

:01:02. > :01:05.He took off too far away. That is it for Williams tonight. That is

:01:05. > :01:13.good news for Robbie Grabarz. Whatever happens in terms of the

:01:13. > :01:21.competition, he is going to win the Diamond race. I bet he's not

:01:22. > :01:26.thinking about the $40,000, what do you reckon? He will want to clear

:01:26. > :01:31.this height. But here is the woman of the moment. The 400m belongs to

:01:31. > :01:36.this young lady. She had to work hard down the straight and I was

:01:36. > :01:43.wondering whether she was going to add to her under 50 seconds, but

:01:43. > :01:49.not tonight. It was a tough victory for her today. I am pretty sure she

:01:49. > :01:56.will be happy when she is on the plane on her way back home with

:01:56. > :02:00.great victories under her belt. 0.31, the new target for the new

:02:00. > :02:06.Diamond League champion, Robbie Grabarz. It has been a cracking

:02:06. > :02:16.season, and Olympic bronze medal, equalling the British High Jump

:02:16. > :02:20.

:02:20. > :02:24.record, and now two more attempts sometimes there is a race where

:02:24. > :02:29.there are a lot of tired athletes, and Sanya Richards-Ross was one of

:02:29. > :02:37.them, but she dug deep in the home straight. She didn't want to get

:02:37. > :02:43.beaten. Montsho, looking like the athlete she was last year. Whyte, a

:02:43. > :02:47.good third place. Ohuruogu, a disappointing 9th place. And Yohan

:02:47. > :02:51.Blake is with Gabby. I know you are waiting to sign the autographs.

:02:51. > :03:01.That was your last hundred metres race of the season and yet you have

:03:01. > :03:02.

:03:02. > :03:05.so much more running. I have to give thanks to my coach. And my

:03:05. > :03:10.managers. For the team has been going for the whole of this season.

:03:10. > :03:17.It has been going really well and took and on this 100m, it is good.

:03:17. > :03:23.How pleased are you of the season? I am very pleased. Three medals in

:03:23. > :03:30.the Olympics. I am very happy. Against the legend, Usain Bolt. I

:03:30. > :03:40.am very happy. Next week, 200m. am looking forward to Brussels.

:03:40. > :03:57.

:03:57. > :04:03.of the women. No Olympic gold or silver-medallist seer. None of them

:04:03. > :04:13.are here in Zurich. Nevertheless, a cracking field. And the diamond

:04:13. > :04:17.

:04:17. > :04:21.lead standings are wide open. That is Simpson of the USA. There is the

:04:21. > :04:31.Olympic bronze-medallist. And Diana Cummings, who has promised to take

:04:31. > :04:32.

:04:32. > :04:42.the athletes through to 2.06. That is Jenny Simpson of the USA. Semi-

:04:42. > :04:42.

:04:42. > :04:51.finalist. Jamal Twice a world champion, she has been around. She

:04:51. > :05:01.has lost a bit of the fears she showed us a couple of years ago.

:05:01. > :05:10.

:05:10. > :05:15.That was hammer England. And Laura is sitting in the commentary box.

:05:15. > :05:25.Last race for her this season. That's right. She is on holiday

:05:25. > :05:25.

:05:25. > :05:31.from next week. This is a very hard season. England is trying to pick

:05:31. > :05:41.out the best of the disappointment of this season. Let's see what they

:05:41. > :05:48.

:05:48. > :05:52.have got left. It is interesting this race. Aregawi, she is the

:05:52. > :05:56.leader of the diamond race. Let's see what happens with the pace.

:05:56. > :06:05.They're all bunched, which is not what you see in xeric. They

:06:05. > :06:11.normally go for it in Zurich. They have decided they will have a

:06:11. > :06:16.little race of their own and led the pacemakers go. Well, the

:06:16. > :06:26.pacemakers, they are not even in the picture. The lead group of the

:06:26. > :06:29.

:06:29. > :06:39.wheel race. Belete, then England, the tall blonde a couple of places

:06:39. > :06:41.

:06:41. > :06:51.behind. Jamal,, hustling along. She is in a good position at the moment.

:06:51. > :06:58.She will want to try to make sure she beats Aregawi. She has a chance

:06:58. > :07:06.of passing her in the Diamond League. She is wearing the blue.

:07:06. > :07:15.This pace, the rest of the field are not interested. The pacemakers

:07:15. > :07:21.have waited for them. We will now see a big burn up over the last 700

:07:21. > :07:31.metres. That is a very slow time. The only athlete we have not

:07:31. > :07:31.

:07:31. > :07:37.mentioned, running in the centre is the 18-year-old Kipyegon of Kenya.

:07:37. > :07:47.They have been producing some wonderful athletes. And there is

:07:47. > :07:51.

:07:51. > :07:56.Martinez in 4th place. England is four athletes in front of Weightman.

:07:56. > :08:01.They expected this race to be strung out. This is not what they

:08:01. > :08:07.expected. This will be a big burn up, everybody will be looking for

:08:07. > :08:15.good positions. It is going to be interesting, this last lap. And

:08:15. > :08:23.those two British athletes are well off the pace. There has been a fall.

:08:23. > :08:33.I think that was Kipyegon, the athlete at this talking about

:08:33. > :08:34.

:08:34. > :08:44.before. England, trying to stay with them as much as possible.

:08:44. > :08:50.

:08:50. > :09:00.Aregawi Has gone into the lead. No sign, at the moment, Maryam Yusuf

:09:00. > :09:02.

:09:02. > :09:07.Jamal Ethiopian record holder is away Abeba Aregawi, going for gold,

:09:07. > :09:16.going for the Diamond League big cheque. She gets it. In second

:09:16. > :09:25.place is the Kenyan, Cherono, but the Ethiopian has won the standings

:09:25. > :09:33.by a long way. She won that race comfortably. Robbie Grabarz,

:09:33. > :09:43.already guaranteed the big prize denied. -- tonight. Can he win the

:09:43. > :09:53.over all competition? Only two men left in it. Ivan Ukhov and Robbie

:09:53. > :09:54.

:09:54. > :10:03.Grabarz. Here he goes... Oh, no. That wasn't the best of his efforts.

:10:03. > :10:08.But a very good competition from him. If Ukhov doesn't go clear, he

:10:08. > :10:15.will win the competition. He would win it on countback, but he knows

:10:15. > :10:25.he has won the big prize already. A very good night for him, if not in

:10:25. > :10:37.

:10:37. > :10:45.terms of the results, but the that flashed up on the screen. Now,

:10:46. > :10:49.the Olympic champion, Ivan Ukhov, the outstanding man in London. He

:10:49. > :10:59.knows he has got Robbie Grabarz sitting in the box seat at the

:10:59. > :11:00.

:11:00. > :11:03.moment. Even if Ukhov get this, Robbie Grabarz... Has won the

:11:03. > :11:13.Diamond League standings, that's for sure. He goes the Olympic

:11:13. > :11:22.

:11:22. > :11:31.champion. That is a great from the British staff. -- staff.

:11:31. > :11:35.Robbie Grabarz gets the money, Ukhov gets the victory. I wonder if

:11:35. > :11:42.Ukhov will decide to go for anything higher than that. Soaked

:11:42. > :11:52.through. But victorious. Let's have a look back at the 1,500 metre

:11:52. > :12:09.

:12:09. > :12:19.result. and the American finished very quickly in third place. Hannah

:12:19. > :12:20.

:12:20. > :12:25.England Finishes in 6th place and Usain Bolt was asked whether he

:12:25. > :12:30.could have gone up for the world records at the London Olympics.

:12:30. > :12:40.I think the 100m, if I didn't mean five metres before, I could have

:12:40. > :12:45.got that. But 200m, I think I could have done it. But I came out, and I

:12:45. > :12:51.was, like, I am not going to try to overdo this, and then be out for

:12:51. > :12:56.the rest of the season. It may be bad and then I have to start from

:12:56. > :13:01.the beginning. I thought I would take it easy. And I can try next

:13:01. > :13:07.season for the record or some other time. The injury you had leading

:13:07. > :13:11.into the Olympics, I am curious to your plans for the future. Is that

:13:11. > :13:17.a concern, is it completely behind you, are you still talking about

:13:17. > :13:27.the Long Jump in the future? It is just my back. The injury comes from

:13:27. > :13:28.

:13:28. > :13:38.a back. All I have to do is work hard, keep it in check. Sometimes,

:13:38. > :13:38.

:13:38. > :13:44.you slag off slightly, and it goes going to dedicate a lot more time

:13:44. > :13:47.to try to keep my call strong, and then I should not have a problem.

:13:47. > :13:51.He doesn't really want to commit to what he is going to do in the

:13:51. > :13:56.future, but would you say he would have an easier racing's schedule

:13:56. > :14:02.next summer? Not necessarily, because athletes love to compete.

:14:02. > :14:07.It is the highlight of what we do. He is such a character. Training is

:14:07. > :14:13.the hard bit and competing is the fun bit. Not in these conditions!

:14:13. > :14:19.It is cold. But, you know, he has to stay healthy, that is the key.

:14:19. > :14:29.And quick times. If he can do that, we will see something special.

:14:29. > :14:43.

:14:43. > :14:53.Let's see what his performance will well. But the race took place. It

:14:53. > :14:54.

:14:54. > :15:04.is warmer than now. This is the full line-up. Alex Wilson is

:15:04. > :15:15.

:15:15. > :15:25.leader. There is a chance that Usain Bolt could still win the

:15:25. > :15:53.

:15:53. > :16:00.highly on his things to do in 2012! start from the big man, going well

:16:00. > :16:05.Rahmat bend with Nickel Ashmeade are the closest. He is estimated

:16:05. > :16:13.down and he is giving him a race. Usain Bolt has dug in become a way

:16:13. > :16:18.he goes. The big legs striding away, 19.66, he makes it looks so easy.

:16:18. > :16:25.Almost becoming ordinary. It is a meeting record. That was held by a

:16:25. > :16:30.Wallace Spearmon. He ran a could bend, came in the home straight,

:16:30. > :16:34.was looking to crews and relax. Nickel Ashmeade was not let him do

:16:34. > :16:38.that. He turned it on the last 50 metres. I am not a sprint expert

:16:38. > :16:46.but that was not the best race I have never -- ever seen Usain Bolt

:16:46. > :16:50.run. How on earth did he run 19.66? The other interesting thing is that

:16:50. > :16:56.Churandy Martina almost gave up. It was about 50 meetings to go, he had

:16:56. > :16:59.a twinge in his thigh or hamstring, -- 50 metres to go. And he was well

:17:00. > :17:05.out of it. So the Diamond League standings are going to be very

:17:05. > :17:09.interesting. I will tell you why Usain Bolt looks like he is not

:17:09. > :17:14.gaining any speed, he is covering lots of ground. He has got a huge

:17:14. > :17:19.stride length. Once he gets his knees for lift going, the highest

:17:19. > :17:24.in the lift, the longer the stride becomes. He can afford to amble

:17:24. > :17:29.around the turn at 9.9 and then come down the home straight by just

:17:29. > :17:34.lifting up your knees. That is how you get a performance of 19.66. It

:17:34. > :17:37.is just great seen him run like this. I love seeing it. He loves

:17:37. > :17:43.seeing this, he loves working the crowd and performing in front of

:17:43. > :17:49.them. This is a new meeting record. I think he will be happy with that.

:17:49. > :17:55.If someone from the North East is cold, imagine how a Jamaican feels!

:17:55. > :18:02.Very true. I guess that is a measure not only of Ashley -- Usain

:18:02. > :18:05.Bolt, you have got to hand it to Nickel Ashmeade. Bear in mind, he

:18:05. > :18:11.did not even represent Jamaica at the Olympic Games at the cement. He

:18:11. > :18:16.has run a personal best. He has won the Diamond race, he takes a

:18:16. > :18:24.$40,000 but the wind, tonight, as ever, goes to Usain Bolt. The new

:18:24. > :18:30.record, 19266. He is not been dramatic, it is rather chilly here.

:18:30. > :18:38.In Lausanne, it was a balmy evening, so it is a very impressive run.

:18:38. > :18:44.is cruise control, it is amazing. For me, it is about bolts, but did

:18:44. > :18:47.you see the rest of the Jamaicans? It is very impressive. There is a

:18:47. > :18:51.really coming later. Yes, the youngsters are coming. Robbie

:18:51. > :18:57.Grabarz is here, congratulations, you have one of bright -- Durman

:18:57. > :19:02.League. Yes, it is crazy! Sum up the top months. I do not believe it

:19:02. > :19:06.quite yet. The three major things have happened, European champion,

:19:06. > :19:10.Olympic medal and I won the Diamond League. I have not got any words, I

:19:10. > :19:14.am so happy. You could have been restoring classic cars if it not

:19:14. > :19:24.for a certain decision. At least they would have been dry! This is

:19:24. > :19:25.

:19:25. > :19:31.incredible. It has been so much fun. Not for one session, -- you don't

:19:31. > :19:37.regret the decision? QC might a showman. It is great fun, high

:19:37. > :19:42.jumper you are up -- it is up on stage, so you have to play or it is

:19:42. > :19:46.very dull and cold. What can you do next with another great winter's

:19:46. > :19:51.training? Just to build on this. There is room for improvement in

:19:51. > :19:55.every competition. One up every competition and I will be smiling.

:19:55. > :19:59.It has been brilliant senior, and seen the fruit of all your

:19:59. > :20:05.neighbours, enjoy your time of. -- it has been brilliant seeing you.

:20:05. > :20:09.Thank you, everyone, cheers. Let's go back to Usain Bolt. It is good

:20:09. > :20:13.to see someone loving his sport. It is the same with Usain Bolt. The

:20:13. > :20:19.crowd really appreciate that. the high jumpers are very special,

:20:19. > :20:24.they have crazy personalities. They use the energy from the crowd. But

:20:24. > :20:29.yes, back to the great man himself. Colin was right, he did amble

:20:29. > :20:34.around the turn. But you know something? He done -- he has done

:20:34. > :20:40.what he set out to do this year. He should be here enjoying it, and he

:20:40. > :20:45.did. It was a great run. We come to think 19.66 is a walk in the park

:20:45. > :20:48.for him. Sub 20 is normal, that is what he does. He would not commit

:20:48. > :20:53.yesterday in the press conference to what is going to do next, the

:20:53. > :20:55.long jump was thrown at him again. One of the journalists suggested

:20:55. > :21:00.that the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow might have been a good time

:21:00. > :21:05.to start that. It will be an issue where he goes now. Even at the age

:21:05. > :21:10.of 15, he was having these problems. He has a slight curvature of the

:21:10. > :21:13.spine. He has to manage himself. The more he can concentrate during

:21:13. > :21:17.the winter months when he does his general preparation, a lot of the

:21:17. > :21:23.core work but he knows he needs to do, we will see a fitter, faster

:21:23. > :21:33.Usain Bolt. He has certainly given back to the crowd. Next, it is the

:21:33. > :21:53.

:21:53. > :22:00.champion, she has already ended her season. But Dawn Harper, Beijing

:22:00. > :22:05.Olympic gold medallist, followed by a silver in London. Virginia

:22:05. > :22:11.Crawford, next to her. Twice the US champion. She finished third in the

:22:11. > :22:16.London Diamond League and 4th in Stockholm. Queen Harrison. Another

:22:16. > :22:20.fine hurdler from the USA. Priscilla Lopes-Schliep, Olympic

:22:20. > :22:25.bronze medallist in Beijing. Silver medallist in the world

:22:25. > :22:29.championships in 2009. Since then she has given birth to her first

:22:29. > :22:34.baby. Not the athlete that she once was but she is still a very, very

:22:34. > :22:42.fast data. And a very fine had levelled up and her a surprise

:22:42. > :22:44.Olympic finalist, Beate Schrott from Austria. Kellie Wells is

:22:44. > :22:48.leading the Diamond League standings by just two points from

:22:48. > :22:55.Dawn Harper. I do not think anyone else is in with a chance with

:22:55. > :22:59.getting in amongst them. Virginia Crawford, perhaps. Kellie Wells is

:22:59. > :23:06.pacing around, Dawn Harper, a very solid performer on these big

:23:06. > :23:12.occasions. Phylicia George of Canada is there as well, and

:23:12. > :23:17.Jessica Zelinka, we have not seen her. She figured highly on the

:23:17. > :23:21.heptathlon scoring tables alongside Jessica Ennis in the very first

:23:21. > :23:27.event of up Olympic heptathlon, she finished in 7th place overall. But

:23:27. > :23:33.she was an Olympic 100 metres hurdles finalist. It is going to be

:23:33. > :23:43.between Kellie Wells in lane four and Dawn Harper in lane five. But

:23:43. > :23:57.

:23:57. > :24:02.we have seen it surprises in the but so did Dawn Harper and a --

:24:02. > :24:06.Dawn Harper alongside her. They are pulling away now. Virginia Crawford

:24:06. > :24:14.is coming on strong but Dawn Harper, she comes through. Bursts through

:24:14. > :24:17.the middle. She won it clearly in the end, 12.58 seconds. A

:24:17. > :24:24.tremendous run in the end by Dawn Harper. She kept their

:24:24. > :24:31.concentration, kept her focus and she gets the money as well. You

:24:31. > :24:35.never used to see you celebrate like that, Colin! I would no way

:24:35. > :24:38.have done that! If I did a cut well I would never run again. These

:24:38. > :24:48.ladies enjoy the competition, enjoy it running against each other. We

:24:48. > :24:52.like to see these head-to-heads. They go from gun to tape, flat out.

:24:52. > :24:58.Dawn Harper has had a cracking season. She will look back at 20

:24:58. > :25:04.Clarke and will not be disappointed. -- she will look back at this year.

:25:05. > :25:09.A silver medal, personal best and now, still looking very good.

:25:09. > :25:16.Kellie Wells, she was aggressive into the first hurdle. She had a

:25:16. > :25:21.here and win the diamond. But also she knew she had to perform well

:25:21. > :25:25.because this field is stacked, loaded with talented women. It is a

:25:26. > :25:30.tough race, but Dawn Harper came through, took the victory well. The

:25:30. > :25:34.second place was Queen Harrison, by the looks of it and Kellie Wells

:25:34. > :25:38.sneaked in to get the third place. A good performance all round. I

:25:38. > :25:42.think they will be pretty happy with their season on reflection,

:25:42. > :25:49.all of them. They won record going back to the winter, it getting

:25:49. > :25:51.strong and fit, and had been making give Sally Pearson a run for her

:25:51. > :26:01.give Sally Pearson a run for her money. -- hoping they can give

:26:01. > :26:06.

:26:06. > :26:10.money. -- hoping they can give Wells, and there are the Diamond

:26:10. > :26:17.League standings. Dawn Harper, Kellie Wells, Queen Harrison, again

:26:17. > :26:22.the United States is so strong in this event.

:26:22. > :26:27.On the far side of the arena, the lock -- long jump is going on. The

:26:27. > :26:31.Russian won a silver medal in the world championships last season.

:26:31. > :26:41.She won the Oslo Diamond League earlier run and this is a good

:26:41. > :26:48.

:26:48. > :26:54.simple hanging technique, as sales over. The super imposed line there

:26:54. > :27:02.is signifiers first place. It looks a very long jump indeed. It is!

:27:02. > :27:09.6.79. Shara Proctor of course, who broke the British record earlier on

:27:09. > :27:13.this year, which had stood for 20 audience. She jumped 6.95. You had

:27:13. > :27:20.a disappointing Olympics, she only finished in 9th place. She is

:27:20. > :27:28.getting closer and closer it took the lead of the Russian. Again,

:27:28. > :27:32.when she takes off, there is no elaborate technique. A very simple

:27:32. > :27:37.sailing, hanging technique in the air. She is very quick on the

:27:37. > :27:47.runway. Providing she gets a good take-off, the distance will come.

:27:47. > :27:48.

:27:48. > :27:53.It is close, 6.72, in second. Yelena Sokolova is next. Olympics

:27:53. > :27:55.or medallists and she won in Lausanne recently. -- Olympic

:27:55. > :28:03.silver medallist. A good acceleration and that is a massive

:28:03. > :28:10.jump. Close to seven metres. And in these conditions, that is superb.

:28:10. > :28:14.So strong on take-off. My goodness! She did not make a mark in the past

:28:14. > :28:20.the scene, so that means it is a valid jump. -- she did not make a

:28:20. > :28:30.mark on the board. It has got to be over, it is 6.92, that will be

:28:30. > :28:30.

:28:30. > :28:35.tough to beat. Russia at the moment are flying in the long jump.

:28:35. > :28:42.The last individual track event is the men's 5000 metres. We still

:28:42. > :28:47.have a very exciting 4x100 relate to finish off. These men might

:28:47. > :28:54.enjoy these conditions more than anyone tonight. It is chilly, but

:28:54. > :29:04.there is very little wind and the rain has stopped. At last! It has

:29:04. > :29:14.

:29:14. > :29:19.metres, and Gebremeskel, who chased Mo Farah home in the 5000 metres.

:29:19. > :29:27.He leads this 5000 metre event. But it is up for grabs here, because he

:29:27. > :29:37.only has eight points. There are the men in the event that has seven

:29:37. > :29:51.

:29:51. > :30:01.behind Mo Farah in the Olympics. What have these four men got in

:30:01. > :30:08.common? As I was beginning to tell you... The 5,000 metres in Paris

:30:08. > :30:18.before the Olympics, a very quick race. We have five men of that race

:30:18. > :30:28.here tonight. We are expecting -- were expecting six of them, but

:30:28. > :30:37.Gebrhiwet did not turn up. Gebremeskel, helicopter and the

:30:37. > :30:47.rest were very fast. -- Kipkoech. Lagat, he is made pack. He is

:30:47. > :30:51.

:30:51. > :30:55.expected to run quickly denied. -- are asked to take 1,000 metres each.

:30:55. > :31:05.They are the three men in front. We need the field to get closer to

:31:05. > :31:12.

:31:12. > :31:20.supposedly going to take them through the pace in the first 1,000

:31:20. > :31:27.metres. That is closer to 12.40 pace. Gebremeskel in second place

:31:27. > :31:32.looking very comfortable. This will be a dangerous race and he will be

:31:32. > :31:42.happy with this sort of pace. The pacemakers coming back to them.

:31:42. > :31:43.

:31:43. > :31:51.They head towards the line for the first time. So Cheboi still leading.

:31:51. > :31:58.This very tough Ethiopian, Merga, running just behind Bekele. Just

:31:58. > :32:08.under 10 laps to go now. Just a little slower than they would have

:32:08. > :32:10.

:32:11. > :32:19.liked. They are looking at about the 2.32 for the first 1,000 metres.

:32:19. > :32:23.It is very well stretched out. A little slow through the first 800m.

:32:23. > :32:33.A little slower than expected. The pacemaker is realising that and

:32:33. > :32:39.

:32:39. > :32:46.picking it up. You have got a Koech, Gebremeskel, and Galen Rupp is

:32:46. > :32:52.looking for a good performance today. There has been so much going

:32:52. > :32:58.on in the stadium. We are just watching the javelin. That was

:32:58. > :33:05.NATIONAL ANTHEM PLAYS. And he takes the lead. -- Antti

:33:05. > :33:13.Ruuskanen. In normal dry conditions, still conditions, they would have

:33:13. > :33:17.no problems at all. But he is another Finn who takes on this

:33:17. > :33:22.finish of falling flat on his face. It is supposed to be quite

:33:22. > :33:29.effective, not recommended for youngsters. Antti Ruuskanen is in

:33:29. > :33:34.the lead. Now, a chance for Tero Pitkamaki. He was disappointed in

:33:34. > :33:40.the Olympics, finishing in 5th. Since then, he has got better and

:33:40. > :33:50.better, produced a season's best of over 86 metres recently. And...

:33:50. > :33:51.

:33:51. > :33:54.That, too, is long, not as long as Ruuskanen. At the moment, the two

:33:54. > :33:59.men who are leading the javelin in first and second place are not the

:34:00. > :34:09.people you might have expected. Trevett of the Czech Republic is

:34:10. > :34:11.

:34:11. > :34:17.the Diamond League leader at the moment. But 82.68, he's definitely

:34:17. > :34:26.in second place and putting the pressure on his team-mate. What a

:34:26. > :34:31.fantastic jump it was by the Russian. Yelena Sokolova jumping.

:34:31. > :34:38.She is trying to conserve a bit of energy and she hits the board well.

:34:38. > :34:42.She doesn't get a lot of height off the board. Just to let you know

:34:42. > :34:47.that Brittney Reese, the Olympic Long Jump champion, retired after

:34:47. > :34:53.her second jump. She only jumped 6.31 in the first round, but she

:34:53. > :34:59.has had a recurrence of an injury which eventually led to a stress

:34:59. > :35:07.fracture some time ago. She does not want a repeat of that. 6.89 for

:35:07. > :35:15.Sokolova. She is very much in the lead in this Diamond League final.

:35:15. > :35:25.Now, a chance for Pitkamaki. He needs something in excess of 83

:35:25. > :35:29.

:35:29. > :35:31.metres. That is good. It is clear of the 85-metre line. Just when

:35:32. > :35:38.people thought this javelin competition was just dying on its

:35:38. > :35:47.feet a little bit, Pitkamaki comes out with a season's best throw.

:35:47. > :35:55.That has thrown the cat amongst the pigeons. He is still down in terms

:35:55. > :36:05.of Diamond League points, but he is taking this competition. That is

:36:05. > :36:06.

:36:06. > :36:12.fantastic from Pitkamaki. Well, what can this guy do to respond? He

:36:12. > :36:20.thought he had this competition won, he followed that with a foul, and

:36:20. > :36:27.now he has got to produce the performance of his life. He has

:36:27. > :36:34.given it everything, but it is not going to be far enough. Tero

:36:34. > :36:40.Pitkamaki, Olympic bronze-medallist, back in 2008, a little wry smile on

:36:40. > :36:45.his face that says, hey, I am still around. He is only 29 years old, he

:36:45. > :36:52.has got a few years left at this top level, but things haven't gone

:36:52. > :36:59.his way this year. He desperately wanted that Olympic title. That of

:36:59. > :37:07.course went to the junior, Walcott, of Trinidad and Tobago. A massive

:37:07. > :37:12.surprise. Now, what can Shara Proctor do? She is in 4th place.

:37:12. > :37:20.Fantastic jumping by Yelena Sokolova, the Russian. She has been

:37:20. > :37:30.superb. And Shara Proctor's best jump so far, 6.72. Can she produce

:37:30. > :37:37.something special? It is not bad! Has she got a white flag? That

:37:37. > :37:46.would be a superb finish. Yes, she has nailed it. The distance is

:37:46. > :37:55.going to be very interesting. I think Sokolova is still in the lead.

:37:55. > :38:01.And Shara Proctor, 6.8, she must into third place. Back with the

:38:01. > :38:08.5,000 metres. It has been a little disappointing, to be honest. The

:38:08. > :38:18.pace making hasn't been clever. Koech, he was leading, he wasn't

:38:18. > :38:18.

:38:18. > :38:23.prepared to stay close to the pacemakers. They have been running

:38:23. > :38:29.63 second laps. That previous lap was the quickest, 62.2, but that

:38:29. > :38:33.was because the pacemaker was going to pop out. They are starting to

:38:33. > :38:42.warm up a little, but they are not heading for the sort of time we

:38:42. > :38:52.were expecting. Hail, then Gebremeskel, we have got Lagat, a

:38:52. > :39:11.

:39:11. > :39:20.little bit further back, we have expecting, which is why so many men

:39:20. > :39:23.are in contention. It will be a last quick couple of laps. There

:39:23. > :39:33.was a disqualification in the Steeplechase earlier on. This has

:39:33. > :39:33.

:39:33. > :39:39.just been brought last, we apologise it has just come now.

:39:39. > :39:44.This is the winner. By being disqualified, she loses tonight's

:39:44. > :39:53.prize-money and also the 40,000 dollar prize. Lack of concentration,

:39:53. > :40:00.to go wrong turn, has been disqualified. That was Assefa. Back

:40:00. > :40:10.to the 5,000. This may well be the last lap that we see Chepkok

:40:10. > :40:10.

:40:10. > :40:20.leading, he has done a reasonable job leading. 61.93. That is why

:40:20. > :40:30.they are stretched out. Longosiwa, Lagat, he is working. Rupp is

:40:30. > :40:31.

:40:31. > :40:35.looking tired. Athletes passing him. Chepkok is grinding out the yards.

:40:35. > :40:44.Koech is looking comfortable in second. Gebremeskel, he has been

:40:44. > :40:48.there since the beginning. The pacemaker is gone. And that is

:40:49. > :40:58.Sokolova in the Long Jump. We are coming up to the closing stages of

:40:59. > :40:59.

:41:00. > :41:04.the Long Jump. Everybody has challenged Okagbare, 6.85. And the

:41:04. > :41:11.only athlete capable of getting close to Sokolova, in the end. But

:41:11. > :41:18.here is the winner. Can she put the icing on top of the cake? She goes

:41:18. > :41:22.for it. And that is a foul, but Sokolova, the winner of the Diamond

:41:22. > :41:32.League standings as far as the Long Jump is concerned. And back to the

:41:32. > :41:40.5,000 metres. Gathering now, 700 metres to go. Koech, Longosiwa,

:41:40. > :41:46.Gebremeskel on the outside. Lagat. The young 18-year-old Ethiopian,

:41:46. > :41:50.Demelash, just on the outside. His head is rocking and rolling just a

:41:50. > :42:00.little bit. Hot ball is getting closer. Gebremeskel is getting

:42:00. > :42:10.

:42:10. > :42:17.was frustrated with his race in the Olympics. And he looks dangerous.

:42:17. > :42:23.He has got his head down. He just eases on to the shoulder of the

:42:23. > :42:28.leader. The pace is picking up gradually. Koech is digging in, the

:42:28. > :42:36.tall of the two, but Gebremeskel is the man who has got a sprint finish.

:42:37. > :42:41.300 metres to go it is still Koech and Gebremeskel. Longosiwa as well.

:42:41. > :42:47.They were all involved in the sprint in the 5,000 metres. And

:42:47. > :42:54.Gebremeskel came out the best. Bekele going backwards. At the

:42:54. > :43:01.front, Koech, trying to hold off Gebremeskel. Longosiwa on the

:43:01. > :43:06.inside. Koech striking from the front. A little stumble from

:43:07. > :43:16.Longosiwa. Gebremeskel left it too late. Koech is being rewarded. He

:43:17. > :43:19.

:43:19. > :43:28.has kept the lead. Just inside 13 minutes. Lagat takes the third.

:43:28. > :43:33.Well, Koech was the anyone interested in it. He was the one

:43:33. > :43:41.who was there to be shot up, particularly with 600 metres to go.

:43:41. > :43:45.He perhaps deserve that victory. Gebremeskel it, well, a little

:43:45. > :43:51.tired perhaps after all of his exploits at the Olympic Games.

:43:51. > :43:57.There is your winner. Not as quick as we thought it would be tonight,

:43:57. > :44:05.nonetheless, under 13 minutes. bad for an 18-year-old, though, is

:44:05. > :44:09.that? Koech put it in the hard yards. That was in the beginning,

:44:09. > :44:19.the middle and the end. Longosiwa tried to make it through on the

:44:19. > :44:19.

:44:19. > :44:24.inside. Gebremeskel, I thought, had more to give at the end. It was

:44:24. > :44:34.Bernard Lagat who started to come through. No doubt about the winner.

:44:34. > :44:39.

:44:39. > :44:47.Using boulders here with me. How much has tonight it giving back to

:44:47. > :44:50.the fans can smack it is all about that. It has been a long season, it

:44:50. > :44:54.has been up-and-down. We are thinking about the fans, they said

:44:55. > :44:59.they wanted me to come to the meeting. I love it here. Even in

:44:59. > :45:04.this rain, you put a good time together a. I know what they want

:45:04. > :45:10.to see. I come out and give my best always because without them, there

:45:10. > :45:15.would be no Usain Bolt. For me, I am happy to perform. I saw you at

:45:15. > :45:20.Old Trafford last week. Manchester United won, in the end. Do you

:45:20. > :45:24.think you could play for Sir Alex Ferguson? Definitely! I think I can

:45:24. > :45:31.do a good job. He said, if I am very interested and I want to come

:45:31. > :45:37.to train with the guys, I can. So I will see what I can do. Midfield?

:45:37. > :45:43.don't know. They've got a lot of midfielders at the moment. They've

:45:43. > :45:53.also got Ryan Giggs. I think I will be a winner and I will do a good

:45:53. > :45:57.

:45:57. > :46:00.job. Ryan Giggs will be moving on I think he is deadly serious about

:46:01. > :46:08.playing for Manchester United. He has got another athletics needs to

:46:08. > :46:11.go before then, he is in Brussels and we are as well, Friday 7pm. He

:46:11. > :46:17.is raising up to 100 metres next week. As much as he is enjoying

:46:17. > :46:21.going back here, he is also enjoying putting his feet up.

:46:21. > :46:27.he deserves it! It is amazing when someone accomplishes everything

:46:27. > :46:30.they set out to do. This one was not about Times, it was about

:46:30. > :46:37.becoming a super legend. It was delivered -- he has delivered a on

:46:37. > :46:41.that. The second part of that, being that famous and dominant, it

:46:41. > :46:45.is what to give back to people and he knows how to do that.

:46:45. > :46:49.witnessed its here, he was around and signing autographs for the

:46:49. > :46:54.young people and giving them the experience of Usain Bolt. I think

:46:54. > :46:58.that very special. Another man -- athlete who has had a good season

:46:58. > :47:02.is Sanya Richards-Ross. The end of a great season, how you feeling?

:47:02. > :47:07.And feeling good. I accomplished remain goal this season at the

:47:07. > :47:11.Olympics but I really enjoy it running at Zurich. This is my 6th

:47:11. > :47:15.time racing and winning, I had a really good energy here. I am happy

:47:15. > :47:19.to end my season on a high note. has been a fantastic season, the

:47:19. > :47:23.highlight at the Olympic Games. I had been dreaming about that

:47:23. > :47:28.since I was nine years old. To finally be living my dream, I am

:47:28. > :47:38.still cloud nine. Go home and have some time off, enjoy it. Thank you

:47:38. > :47:46.

:47:46. > :47:54.Koech being the winner. Bernard lagger at, hoping to go quicker.

:47:54. > :48:01.But he has a season's best. So we are going to finish off with the

:48:02. > :48:07.traditional xeric 4x100 relay. A strong team for Great Britain being

:48:07. > :48:15.led by Christian Malcolm. Americans have a strong quartet. Dwain

:48:15. > :48:20.Chambers on the back straight for GB, and I am told that he ran

:48:20. > :48:30.earlier, so did Adam Jimmy Lee, he will bring him home. -- Adam Kay

:48:30. > :48:53.

:48:53. > :48:57.at the start -- Tyson Gay is on the back straight, then Ryan Bailey. He

:48:57. > :49:07.had the unenviable task of trying to chase down Usain Bolt in the

:49:07. > :49:19.

:49:19. > :49:29.year this week in terms of -- a cracking year this year in terms of

:49:29. > :49:33.

:49:33. > :49:43.the relays. Dwain Chambers actually ran in Slovakia last week, he'd had

:49:43. > :49:58.

:49:58. > :50:02.that was heard it -- held earlier. It has been a cold evening here in

:50:02. > :50:08.Zurich, the crowd have done their best as ever. It is always one of

:50:08. > :50:14.the best atmospheres on the track and field slackest. Then -- the

:50:14. > :50:21.track and field circuit. When they redesigned the Letzigrund, they

:50:21. > :50:26.kept be standing sections on the bends. They will go for the

:50:26. > :50:33.European Championships in 2014, it will be all-seated. 26,000 can fit

:50:33. > :50:38.in here, I am told. It will be a cracking championships, I am sure.

:50:38. > :50:45.Already well into the planning phase of that. Let's hope it is a

:50:45. > :50:50.bit warmer than it is tonight! It has not been typical Zurich weather.

:50:50. > :50:54.Italy on the inside, Germany into Mecca, Great Britain in three,

:50:54. > :51:04.Jamaica Inn for, it just might -- United States in Five, Switzerland

:51:04. > :51:13.

:51:13. > :51:19.six, and evidence in seven and Great Britain after a good start, a

:51:19. > :51:23.bit twitchy and he did not get out of the blocks well. A safe

:51:23. > :51:33.changeover, to Dwain Chambers. Everyone has got a bat on a cross

:51:33. > :51:34.

:51:34. > :51:40.safely, American are looking good. Tyson Gay going around the top bend,

:51:40. > :51:46.Jamaica in between him between USA and Britain. Gemili is chasing Ryan

:51:46. > :51:50.Bailey. Bailey is running away. The USA will win it, USA first,

:51:50. > :51:54.Jamaica's second, Great Britain third. A good performance from the

:51:54. > :52:02.British quartet. Not the best American or Jamaican team, but they

:52:02. > :52:12.are still pretty good. 38.01 clocking on a chilly night, not bad.

:52:12. > :52:13.

:52:13. > :52:17.Great Britain have got the baton around, Harry! One thing we can say,

:52:17. > :52:21.or joking aside, it is not a joking matter about a Great Britain and

:52:21. > :52:25.the batter on. With the likes of Gemili and the younger sprinters

:52:25. > :52:28.coming through, if he is on the last leg for us in the future, then

:52:28. > :52:36.we are always going to be in with a chance for a medal. He is going to

:52:36. > :52:42.be a very good anchorman for us in the years to come. He has already

:52:42. > :52:46.developed very class act at the moment. The winners, even before

:52:46. > :52:50.the result is confirmed, getting the Zurich Trophy. Let's have a

:52:50. > :52:58.look at it again. It was all about the USA and Jamaica, but Christian

:52:58. > :53:04.Malcolm got great Britain up to their usual solid start. The second

:53:04. > :53:07.leg for Jamaica was Jason Young. That was actually the last leg

:53:07. > :53:13.there. At this point, you could have been forgiven for thinking

:53:13. > :53:19.that Adam Gemili actually had a chance, running against Bailey, who

:53:19. > :53:24.beat him in the individual event, just. The very tall figure of Ryan

:53:24. > :53:31.Bailey, 5th in the Olympic final, he is a find sprinter, he is a sub

:53:31. > :53:34.10 second man, all the way home for the USA. Great Britain, the likes

:53:34. > :53:41.of Dwain Chambers. He is just having looked across at the

:53:41. > :53:51.Italians who fell. That was after the changeover. He hands it on to

:53:51. > :54:00.donate all but. He ran it in 1045. This is where the problem appeared

:54:00. > :54:06.in the Olympics. The changeover between tall but burnt Gemili. He

:54:06. > :54:14.gets it safely this time. And that is all that matters. As you say,

:54:14. > :54:22.give Gemili the baton and he will do the business. Congratulations of

:54:22. > :54:28.is the to the USA, well done to Jamaica, and congratulations to the

:54:28. > :54:35.Great Britain quartet who are in third place. 38.3 for the British

:54:35. > :54:39.quartet. A fairly solid American team got the victory. A bit of

:54:39. > :54:47.prize money -- prize-money for this, they were happy with their night's

:54:47. > :54:56.We have got plenty of great sport coming up for you, next Friday it

:54:56. > :55:01.is this final Diamond League of the season, 7:00pm in Brussels. On

:55:01. > :55:06.Saturday, at 2:30pm, world sprint and Team Championships of the

:55:06. > :55:15.triathlon. Danny Brown they went in that, highlights for that. -- Jerry

:55:15. > :55:21.Brown the point -- Jonathan Bramley. Three of Our equestrian winning

:55:21. > :55:31.team will be at the Horse trials on Sunday. After the break, grand prix

:55:31. > :55:33.

:55:33. > :55:37.action is back, qualifying is at 10 I am surrounded by happy athlete.

:55:37. > :55:42.Congratulations, Adam, how much of a relief, to get it round and get

:55:42. > :55:46.good results? It feels good, we got it round. We knew in the Olympics

:55:46. > :55:49.we were in go to shape and we could have got a medal. But things

:55:50. > :55:55.happened, it is nice to come here and show we can get around and

:55:55. > :56:00.compete with the USA and Jamaica. And you did, a top-three finish.

:56:00. > :56:03.was great to be here. We wanted to make amends for what happened at

:56:04. > :56:09.the Games, we are all related, it is looking to get the baton around.

:56:09. > :56:14.A great way to end the season and some prize money. It will be nice,

:56:14. > :56:21.some change to spend! These ones will be parting, asked all the men

:56:21. > :56:27.will be investing in our kids! -- asked aldermen will be investing in

:56:27. > :56:34.our kids. Enjoy your evening and your time of, well done for what

:56:34. > :56:37.must be a relief of a performance. After what happened at the Olympics.

:56:37. > :56:42.Lovely to see them smiling and getting the battle around, knowing

:56:42. > :56:45.they can see it, psychologically an important hurdle to overcome.

:56:45. > :56:51.a definite psychological boost for them. They did run well in London,

:56:51. > :56:56.apart from that blip coming out of the box. If this team can really

:56:56. > :57:02.gel, they can go on to do better things. It has been have disastrous

:57:02. > :57:06.year for British male sprinting. Let's talk about highlights, Robbie

:57:06. > :57:10.Grabarz gave another great performance, he won the Diamond

:57:10. > :57:16.League overall, a bronze medal at the Olympics, European champion.

:57:16. > :57:20.is a cracking season! There is no two ways about it. For him to come

:57:20. > :57:26.and compete against the best of the world were on a regular basis is

:57:26. > :57:33.way you get your confidence from, you draw confidence from that. This

:57:33. > :57:38.is what you need. He now thinks he can win. Two years ago when he

:57:38. > :57:42.started off, he never believed that. Now he is in a real good place.

:57:42. > :57:46.Yohan Blake is going to have an interesting season next year.

:57:46. > :57:49.Depending on where Usain Bolt decides to race, he is getting

:57:49. > :57:55.faster and faster in the 100 metres, defending world champion into next

:57:55. > :57:59.year. Absolutely, every time he steps on the track, we come to

:57:59. > :58:04.expect what he is capable of. His times are getting quicker, he is

:58:04. > :58:07.going -- gaining in confidence. He is the man to watch next year.

:58:07. > :58:14.Disappointment for David Rudisha, conditions never ride for a world

:58:14. > :58:17.record but just the pace did not lend itself. Not at all. You get an

:58:17. > :58:22.experienced runner like this, you kick -- expected to hang on in for

:58:22. > :58:27.the victory but it did not work out well. We are highly critical, this

:58:27. > :58:33.time were still one minute for to to come are still sensational. --
