Will this man hold the 400 m hurdles world record after Tuesday night?
This season's last
Diamond League event on European soil will take place in Rome the 17th of September in the legendary olympic stadium Stadio Olimpico. The event carries the name Golden Gala Pietro Mennea which is a tribute to the great Italian sprinter
Pietro Mennea.
Mennea specialised in 200 metres winning the Olympic gold medal in 1980 in Moscow and two European Championships gold medals on that distance. He also took a European gold on 100 metres.
Norway's
Karsten Warholm will take another shot at the world record in Rome in men's 400 m hurdles. This will be Warholm's last international race of the season and the Flying Norwegian is eager to put
Kevin Young's 28-year-old WR to rest.
Sweden's
Armand Duplantis has been dominating men's pole vault this season jumping regularly over six meters. Will we see another attempt on 615 in Rome from the Swedish wonder kid?
Yet another interesting young Scandinavian athlete in Rome is Norway's
Jakob Ingebrigtsen. The 19-year-old has been crushing junior and adult records for years already and in Rome he will competing in a rarer 3000 metres race.
Mohammed Mourhid's European record of 7.26,62 might be in danger tonight.
