The 2025 London Diamond League is all set to take center stage at the London Stadium on July 19. Also known as the London Athletics Meet, the event is the 11th stop in the Wanda Diamond League series, which will culminate at the Zurich meet on August 27-28.
One of the most anticipated races at the 2025 edition of the meet is the men’s 100m, where 100m Olympic champion Noah Lyles will face off against 200m Olympic gold medalist Letsile Tebogo, South Africa’s Akani Simbine, who hasn’t lost a single 100m outdoor race this season, and Jamaican sprint star Oblique Seville. With such a star-studded lineup, it will be interesting to see how Lyles fares in his 100m season opener.
Another event to watch out for is the women’s 200m where the Olympic silver medalist Julien Alfred will take on training partner Dina Asher Smith. Spain’s Jaël Bestué and Great Britain’s Amy Hunt are a few other names to watch out for in this category.
Meanwhile, in the middle-distance events, the men’s 800m also features a strong field, with Emmanuel Wanyonyi, Marco Arop, Bryce Hoppel, and Mohamed Attaoui all competing for the top spot. In the women’s mile, Gudaf Tsegay, Jessica Hull, Linden Hall and Sarah Healy are among the frontrunners for the title.
Other athletes to look out for at the London Diamond League include Josh Kerr, Cameron Myers, Phanuel Koech and Isaac Nader (men’s 1500m), Yaroslava Mahuchikh and Eleanor Patterson (women’s high jump), Molly Caudery and Katie Moon (women’s pole vault) and Mykolas Alekna, Daniel Ståhl and Kristjan Čeh (men’s discus throw).
