Paris Diamond League 2021: Preview, when and where to watch on TV, event timings, tickets and live streaming details
Although the Olympics are over, the excitement is still high as Paris Diamond League 2021 promises some big names competing at the Charlety Stadium on Saturday (August 28). America’s Allyson Felix in 400m and Jamaica’s Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce in 100m will be in action at Wanda DL.
By winning bronze in 400m and gold in 4x400m in Tokyo in August, Felix became the most successful female athlete in Olympic history, with eleven podiums including seven victories.
Allyson Felix has become a role model for many women through her commitments. The mother of a three-year-old daughter (Camryn), she fought so that the motherhood of high-level athletes is no longer penalized by sponsors. Instead, she has become a valuable asset.
With a timing of 49:96 seconds (two-tenths more than her personal best), the American sprinter will have a hard time facing Dominican Marileidy Paulino (49:20), silver in Tokyo, and Jamaica’s Stephenie McPherson (49:34).
Paris will also have the honor of welcoming another GOAT in Shell-Ann at the Wanda Diamond League. Mommy Rocket, as she is known, finished second in Tokyo behind two-time Olympic champion Elaine Thompson-Herah. Elaine will also be contesting on Saturday. Add Shericka Jackson, who won bronze at the Olympics, and it will be a replay of the Tokyo Games.
Germany’s Sebastian Vetter will also be in action at the Paris Diamond League in the javelin event. He would like to forget the horrors of the Tokyo Olympics when he returns to the track with his spear.
