Amy Hunt second in Diamond League Final 100m as Hunter Bell fades

Amy Hunt took second in the 100m at the Diamond League Final in Brussels, while Georgia Hunter Bell finished fourth in the 1,500m.

  • Amy Hunt finished second in the 100m in 11.06s, ahead of Sha'Carri Richardson.
  • Tina Clayton won the 100m in 10.93s.
  • Georgia Hunter Bell finished fourth in the 1,500m in 3:56.40.

Amy Hunt continued her strong season with second place in the 100m at the Diamond League Final in Brussels, edging former world champion Sha'Carri Richardson in a photo finish. The Brit finished in 11.06s, with Richardson a fraction behind in 11.07s, but Jamaica's Tina Clayton won her first title in 10.93s.

The 24-year-old Hunt also took third in the 100m on Friday night, capping a successful weekend.

There was less joy for Britain's Georgia Hunter Bell, who looked tired throughout the 1,500m and faded badly in the closing straight. She finished fourth in 3:56.40, more than two seconds behind winner Klaudia Kazimierska of Poland, who set a meeting and national record in a world-leading 3:54.05.

Elsewhere, Audrey Werro won the women's 800m in a meeting record of 1:54.75, while Kenny Bednarek took the men's 200m in 19.61s.
