MONACO (Reuters) -Jessica Hull of Australia blazed to a world record in the women's 2,000 metres at the Monaco Diamond League meet on Friday, making a stunning statement ahead of the Paris Olympics as trackside fireworks exploded during her final powerful strides.
Norway's Jakob Ingebrigtsen ran a blistering last lap to shave a whopping three seconds off his own world-leading time and prove he is on pace to repeat as Olympic 1,500m champion, while Djamel Sedjati, in the 800m, and Quincy Hall, in the 400m, also clocked world-leading times.
