– Sha'Carri Richardson ran an impressive 21.61 in the first round of the 200m – although the tailwind exceeded the allowable limit for record purposes, it matched the sixth-fastest time in history under all conditions.
– Nia Ali, a 34-year-old athlete and mother, won the 100m hurdles with a time of 12.37 seconds, her best time in four years.
