How does the Diamond League work?published at 17:35 BST 3 July
The Diamond League – athletics’ premier one-day meeting series – consists of 15 stops, this year culminating in a two-day final in Brussels in September.
Athletes compete for points across 32 Diamond League disciplines at the 14 regular series meetings in a bid to qualify for the finals.
The top six athletes in field events, top eight in track events from 100m up to 800m, and top 10 in distances from 1500m upwards, will qualify for the finals.
The finals, which precede the inaugural season-ending World Athletics Ultimate Championship, are a winner-takes-all showdown to be crowned Diamond League champion in each event.
