Werro wins in Brussels, as Russell and Dos Santos shine

In the second and final day of the Diamond League finals in Brussels, Switzerland's Audrey Werro clinched victory in the 800m race. Werro, 22, was pushed all the way by Femke Broeders-Bol, a Dutch athlete who has been steadily improving as she transitions from the 400m hurdles. Werro crossed the finish line in 1 minute 54.75 seconds, breaking eight meet records during the high-octane race.

Meanwhile, America's Masai Russell and Brazil's Alison dos Santos also shone on the second day, setting new records. Russell won the 100m hurdles in 12.20 seconds, his 12th win of the season. Dos Santos led from the start in the men's 400m hurdles, breaking the previous meet record of 47.51 seconds set by American Andre Phillips in 1986.

In the absence of Norway's Karsten Warholm, Dos Santos dominated the field. Kenny Bednarek of the United States also had a strong performance, winning the 200m in 19.62 seconds. Jamaican Tina Clayton wrapped up the 100m in 10.92 seconds, while European champion Amy Hunt of Britain secured the second position.

Australian Cameron Campbell made history by becoming the first man to break the 23-meter mark in the shot put, with a throw of 23.08m. This achievement moved him to fourth on the all-time list. Campbell also expressed his hope to represent Turkey in the upcoming Los Angeles Olympics, despite his initial bid to transfer allegiance being refused by World Athletics.

In the women's 1,500m, Poland's Klaudia Kazimierska set a national record and world lead with a time of 3:54.05, beating Faith Kipyegon's meet record by 0.70 seconds. British favorite Georgia Hunter Bell finished fourth, while American Hana Moll improved her personal best in the pole vault to 4.91m for a victory. Finally, Sri Lanka's Rumesh Tharanga Pathirage became the first Diamond League champion from his country, winning the men's javelin with a throw of 89.04m.
