The 2016 IAAF Diamond League circuit almost began its European stint in sensational session as Ethiopian Almaz Ayana just missed the world record. She wasn't the only one running impressively as Ameer Webb had a great double, Caster Semenya toyed with the field once again and an American man PRd to place in the top 5 in the steeple. The meet wasn't roses for everyone as Ajee Wilson struggled mightily.

The meet wasn't roses for everyone as Ajee Wilson struggled mightily.
Tamberi says he likes to be "crazy" and entertain spectators because "I come from other sports like basketball where there is like a different feeling for entertainment.”
Wilson looks to be in good shape but has her hands full in a truly spectacular women's 800 with Caster Semenya, Francine Niyonsaba and all of the medalists from 2015. There's also Elijah Manang'oi in the men's 1,500, Trayvon Bromell in the 200, Justin Gatlin in the 100, Wayde van Niekerk in the 400, Marquise Goodwin vs. Greg Rutherford in the LJ, English Gardner vs. Elaine Thompson in the 100 and Gianmarco Tamberi in the HJ.
