DIAMOND LEAGUE FINAL RECAP — BIGGEST WINNERS AND LOSERS FROM ZURICH

Chris Chavez and Mac Fleet break down the biggest winners and losers from the Diamond League final in Zurich. Some of the top highlights from the meet include… - Brittany Brown makes the most of her second shot at the World team by winning the 200m final in a season’s best 22.13. - Niels Laros solidifies his spot as the top dog in the 1500m with an undeniable victory over world leader Azeddine Habz, world junior record holder Phanuel Koech, and 2019 World champion Timothy Cheriyot, running 3:29.20 to also claim the Dutch national record by 0.03 seconds. - Audrey Werro thrills the home crowd in Switzerland with a huge win and national record in the 800m, as she and Georgia Hunter Bell both dip under 1:56 for the first time in their careers, with Werro holding onto the edge with 1:55.91 to 1:55.96. - Olympic champ Emmanuel Wanyonyi had to go to the well to stay ahead of Max Burgin on the homestretch of the 800m, but in the end he had just enough in the tank to take the win in 1:42.37 to Burgin’s 1:42.42. - World champ Noah Lyles and Olympic champ Letsile Tebogo battle for every step of the 200m, with Lyles just beating his rival by inches in the end, 19.74 to 19.76. - Olympic 100m champ Julien Alfred doesn’t look like she’s missed a step after withdrawing from two Diamond Leagues earlier this month with a hamstring issue, holding off a strong challenge from Tia Clayton to take the title in 10.76. ____________ Hosts: Chris Chavez | ⁠ ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠⁠ + Mac Fleet | @macfleet on Instagram Produced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ Mentioned in this episode… Watch: ⁠Zurich Diamond League Final Interviews⁠ Listen: ⁠Nikki Hiltz On Their Career-Defining Season To Repeat As National Champion, Winning A Diamond League, And Heading To The World Championships As A Medal Threat⁠ Listen: ⁠Record-Breaking 16-Year-Old Cooper Lutkenhaus On His Decision To Turn Professional & Sign With Nike⁠ Listen: ⁠Kenneth Rooks On His “Rollercoaster” 2025 Season And His Hopes For The World Championships In Tokyo⁠ ____________ SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS OLIPOP: Straight out of Bikini Bottom, Olipop’s limited edition SpongeBob cans have arrived.
