Kenyan athlete Faith Kipyegon recorded the second-fastest time in history over the women's 3000 meters, clocking 8:07.04 at the Silesia Diamond League meeting. Although she narrowly missed breaking the world record by 0.93 seconds, Kipyegon set new African and Diamond League records with this performance. In other Diamond League events, Keely Hodgkinson set a meeting record in Lausanne in the women's 800 meters, marking back-to-back victories since her return from injury. In the men's 100 meters at the same meeting, Seville won the race, with Noah Lyles finishing second in 10.02 seconds. Lyles, who is aiming for a third consecutive world championship title, also competed in the men's 200 meters, entering with a season-best time of 20.71 seconds recorded at the Voor Mon Meet in Belgium.
