33 review IAAF Diamond League media guide 10 HIGHLIGHTS FROM 2018 One world record and nine IAAF Diamond League records were broken throughout the 2018 season, along with dozens of world leads, meeting records and national records. Beyond the record-breaking performances, there were many other memorable moments, close finishes and intriguing battles. Sandra Perkovic s 70-metre discus throw, Doha World and Olympic discus champion Sandra Perkovic kickstarted her 2018 IAAF Diamond League campaign with a world-leading throw of 71.38m in Doha to break her own IAAF Diamond League record. Juan Miguel Echevarria s windy 8.83m long jump, Stockholm Nineteen-year-old Juan Miguel Echevarria of Cuba virtually long jumped out of the pit in Stockholm to register an effort of 8.83m that, but for a following wind of 2.1m/s 0.1m/s over the allowable limit for record purposes would have been the farthest legal jump since Mike Powell set the current world record of 8.95m in 1991.

34 review IAAF Diamond League media guide Abderrahman Samba s sub m hurdles win, Paris Qatar s Aberrahman Samba became the second fastest man ever over 400m hurdles, beating a field including Norway s world champion Karsten Warholm in just 0.20 off the world record set by USA s Kevin Young when winning the 1992 Olympic title. Shaunae Miller-Uibo s 400m win, Monaco Olympic 400m champion Shaunae Miller-Uibo of The Bahamas was pushed all the way to the line by her 20-year-old rival Salwa Eid Naser of Bahrain in Monaco, winning in a meeting, national, and IAAF Diamond League record, and the fastest run in Naser was rewarded with an Asian record of Beatrice Chepkoech s steeplechase world record, Monaco Beatrice Chepkoech, who had lost her chance of winning the world 3000m steeplechase title in London the year before after initially missing a water jump and having to double back to complete it, made the headlines for the right reasons in Monaco by setting a world record of 8:44.32, taking more than eight seconds off the previous mark.

35 review IAAF Diamond League media guide Conseslus Kipruto s one-shoed steeplechase win, Zurich Kenya s world and Olympic champion Conseslus Kipruto lost his left shoe after a minute and a half of the men s 3000m steeplechase in Zurich but went on to retain his IAAF Diamond League title by overtaking Morocco s world silver medallist Soufiane El Bakkali in between the final barrier and the finishing line. Christian Coleman and Noah Lyles mark new era of US sprinting, Brussels/Monaco World indoor champion Christian Coleman returned from midseason injuries to qualify for the IAAF Diamond League final in Brussels and take the trophy in a world-leading Two days after his 21st birthday, Noah Lyles of the United States won the men s 200m in Monaco in a world-leading 19.65, moving him into the top 10 on the world all-time list with one of four sub-19.7 clockings throughout the year.

36 review IAAF Diamond League media guide Tom Walsh s shot put Diamond League record, Zurich New Zealand s Tom Walsh once again proved to be a man for the big occasion. In one of the highest quality shot put competitions in history, the world indoor and outdoor champion sent his shot out to an IAAF Diamond League record of 22.60m in Zurich to land the Diamond trophy. Caterine Ibarguen s horizontal jumps double, Zurich/Brussels Colombia s Olympic triple jump champion Caterine Ibarguen secured a narrow victory in her specialist event at the IAAF Diamond League final in Zurich before hopping on a flight to Brussels the next morning for the second IAAF Diamond League final. She won the long jump there to become the first non-sprinter to win two Diamond trophies in one year.
