In a race won by France's Morhad Amdouni it was a gutsy run from Lancashire to finish just outside the top three at the Memorial Van Damme, with Chris O'Hare and Dale Clutterbuck tenth and 11th respectively.

After first-time clearances at 1.80m, 1.85m and 1.90m, Isobel Pooley bowed out of the high-jump competition at 1.93m to finish in fourth place.

Also in fourth place was Tiffany Porter in the 100m hurdles after clocking 12.81 seconds, with Dawn Harper-Nelson wrapping up the Diamond Race title with victory in 12.63.
