Jakob Ingebrigtsen and Femke Bol both bounced back from Olympic disappointment with meeting records at the Wanda Diamond League Lausanne on Thursday, while Botswana’s gold medallist Letsile Tebogo continued his fine form with victory in the men’s 200m. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Among the other delights for a packed crowd at the Stade Olympique de la Pontaise was an historic performance from Emmanuel Wanyonyi in the 800m. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There were also masterful victories for Olympic gold medallists Yaroslava Mahuchikh of Ukraine in the women\u2019s high jump, Miltiadis Tentoglou of Greece in the men\u2019s long jump and Botswana\u2019s 200m champion Tebogo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just two weeks after her defeat Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone in the Olympic final, Dutch star Bol blew away the Paris blues with an impressive 52.25 at the Athletissima meeting, claiming her fourth successive win in Lausanne and breaking her own meeting record in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Distance star Ingebrigtsen also restored some wounded pride as he went up against the USA’s Cole Hocker, who had sensationally beaten him to the 1500m gold medal in Paris. In Lausanne, Ingebrigtsen reasserted himself in lordly fashion as he finished 10 metres clear in 3:27.83 \u2013 one of five meeting records set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 2021 Olympic 1500m champion, who earned the enormous consolation of a 5000m gold in Paris, led at the bell as the second pacemaker dropped off, with Hocker and US teammate Hobbs Kessler close behind him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But as the trio made their way round the final bend, the Norwegian managed to create a five-metre lead that had doubled by the time he crossed the line, with Hocker coming through for second place in 3:29.85 and Kessler finishing third in 3:30.47.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
