With only a month left for the Wanda Diamond League line-up, track and field athletes are gearing up for the meet with full enthusiasm. World’s potential Olympian sprinters, including Christian Coleman, Fred Kerley, and Yohan Blake, will confront each other in the 100m sprint ahead of the Paris Olympics 2024.

While each of these 3 sprinters holds spectacular records, 2019 100m world champion Christian Coleman triumphed over Noah Lyles in Eugene in September 2023 in the last edition of the Diamond League. Now, this Shanghai/Shuzhou diamond league is set of some of the fastest men ever.

Taking to its official Twitter handle,  Wanda Diamond League shared the details of the upcoming DL meeting detail, captioning the post “STAR-STUDDED LINE-UP 🤩 These three sprinting weapons will set the stadium 🏟️ alight in China on the 27th of April 💥 🗞️ #DiamondLeague 💎 #SuzhouDL 🇨🇳”. The second Wanda Diamond League meeting of the 2024 season has been scheduled to be held on 27 April.

The world record-holder in the 60 meters, Coleman, has had a phenomenal beginning to the season. He defeated Noah Lyles, the triple world champion, to win the 60-meter title at the World Indoor Championships. Preparing for Paris,  Coleman expressed his exhilaration for the China event, “I’m looking forward to opening my season with another great performance in China and starting my Olympic campaign off on a great note.” But on this path, he is not alone.
