Last month, Amusan finished second behind 2020 Tokyo Olympics winner, Jasmine Camacho-Quinn of Puerto Rico at the Diamond League Meet in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Compatriot and Commonwealth champion, Ese Brume wasn’t so lucky in her event as she finished 2nd in the women’s long jump

Brume, who clinched her first win at the Diamond League Meet winning the Women’s Long Jump event at the Allianz Memorial Van Damme in Brussels, Belgium on Friday, jumped a distance of 6.78 meters.

Brume got her first-ever victory in Brussels winning the Women’s Long Jump leaping a distance of 6.83m at Brussels Diamond League having finished second in Doha (2018) and Eugene (2022). Brume will be up against home favourite, Malaika Mihambo.

The Internationales Stadionfest (ISTAF) is an annual track and field meeting held at the Olympiastadion in Berlin, Germany, the world’s oldest invitational one-day meeting.

It was first organised on July 3, 1921 at the Deutsches Stadion, which was replaced after the 1936 Summer Olympics by the current stadium in 1937.

Since 2010 it has been part of the IAAF World Challenge meetings, the second tier of global one-day athletics events.
