14 Olympic Champions at IAAF Diamond League Final in Zurich
14 champions of the Rio Olympic
Games are heading the illustrious entry lists for the IAAF Diamond
League final at Weltklasse Zürich this Thursday (1 September).
16 Diamond Trophies, which include prize money of 40,000 USD each, will be awarded. The new champions will line up against 26 Olympic medallists, 10 reigning world champions and 16 champions of the recent European Athletics Championships in Amsterdam.
The impressive Weltklasse Zürich entry lists suggest another edition of “Olympic Games in one night” and a unique athletics experience for 25 000 stadium visitors. 16 winners of the Diamond Trophy will be determined. In the final leg of each Diamond Race, points are doubled. Therefore, the winners of the final in Zurich will be awarded 20 points, a factor that could shake up the race in more than one case.
