Two 20-year old mega-talents - both undefeated in outdoor 200s since the 2016 Olympic Trials - will battle on Thursday in Lausanne. Enjoy it as big-time men's sprint stars hardly ever face each other on the DL circuit.

The 2018 Lausanne DL featured a fantastic clash between two of America's and the world's great young sprint talents in Michael Norman and Noah Lyles. Plus maybe the craziest 5000 finish we've ever scene.
Duplantis doesn't have much experience on a raised runway outside of a track.
He definitely won't be at DL finale as he's got to do the Asian Games for Qatar.
Thomas skipped USAs but is going to balance a few DLs while doing an internship in Boston.
Thursday's Lausanne DL looks like a dandy as there is a world record attempt by Abderrahman Samba, a stacked 1500 with Shelby Houlihan, Caster Semenya, Gudaf Tsegay, Laura Muir, and Sifan Hassan, a quality men's 5k featuring breakout star Selemon Barega and a women's 800 where Ajee Wilson will attempt to earn her first Diamond League win in three years.

Plus Semenya vs Muir at 1500.
