The holder of the men’s pole vault world record, Armand ‘Mondo’ Duplantis of Sweden, is anticipated to be a dominant force in his event.
Shericka Jackson, the incumbent world champion from Jamaica, will go head-to-head with Britain’s Daryll Neita and Dina Asher-Smith, making the women’s 200-meter dash a must-watch event.
Two exceptional athletes will compete in the women’s long jump: Malaika Mihambo of Germany, who holds both Olympic and world titles, and Yulimar Rojas, who claims the triple jump world record. Rojas aspires to win two Olympic titles, which makes this competition even more compelling.
Faith Kipyegon of Kenya, a two-time Olympic gold medalist and current world record holder in the 1500m and 5000m, seeks to add the non-Olympic mile distance to her collection of world records.
The Herculis competition is poised to be a celebration of athletic excellence with such a stellar lineup.Grenada’s javelin world champion Anderson Peters, Morocco’s Olympic 3000m steeplechase gold medalist Soufiane El Bakkali, and the showdown in the men’s 100m featuring Africa’s top sprinters Akani Simbine, Letsile Tebogo, and Ferdinand Omanyala should not be overlooked.
This competition is expected to be one of the most exciting and captivating of the year, providing an uncommon opportunity to witness an athletics pitch as formidable and impressive as this.
