The Kenyan Beatrice Chibet broke the world record in the 5,000 -meter women’s race, while its fellow Fayth Kepeegon broke its record again in the 1500 -meter race, during the Eugene meeting in the Diamond League competitions on Saturday.
The Olympic Champion has traveled the distance in 13 minutes and 58.06 seconds, overcoming the previous time of Ethiopian Godaf Tsaiji (14: 00.21) by a difference of more than two seconds, after she left Tsagai behind her 200 meters before the finish line and quickly started to win.
Chibate looked shocked when she sees the registered time, adding this number to her world record in the 10,000 -meter race in Eugene last year. She was close to breaking the number before when she recorded 14: 03.69 in Rome last month.
“I am very happy,” she said.
“I decided to go home, then I came to Eugene ready. I was designed to try to break the record,” she added.
Sighay and Kenyan, Agnes Gibbet, tried to keep up almost throughout the race, but they could not keep up with it at the last start, and ended the race in second place in 14: 01.29, which is the third fastest timing in history.
The Diamond League in Eugene is also known as the “Brevontene Classic” starring is one of the most ancient athletics meetings in the world, and is held annually at the Haward Stadium in Eugene in Oregon, USA.
The 2025 version, which was held on July 5, witnessed the fiftieth anniversary of the tournament, and made an amazing presentation of global -level competitions.
At the conclusion of the meeting (the 50th Brevontene Championship), Kibikon achieved a 3 -minute and 48.68 seconds in the 1500 -meter race, improved its previous record (3: 49.04) that she recorded in Paris last July.
Kibiigon, Olympic champion 3 times in this race, had recently failed to become the first woman to break the four -minute barrier in the tendency race, but she recovered from that disappointment in a brilliant style.
She raised her speed on the back straight path, accelerated at the last turn, and crossed the finish line with two eyes of amazement when she saw the timing.
In the jumping competitions, Swedish Mondo Dublncis failed to try to break his record for the 13th time.
The best height was 6.28 meters in Stockholm in June, and he did not face real competition after everyone came out at 5.90. He tried 3 times to exceed 6.29, but he did not succeed.
As for the 100 -meter race for men, the Jamaican Keishin Thompson, the Olympic Silver, dominated it, with a winning of 9.85 seconds, just ahead of his personal number registered 8 days ago, and the British Zarneel Hughes came in second place.
“No one is able to stop me. I don’t say this with arrogance, but the truth is that once my performance improves, amazing things will happen,” Tomson said.
In a 400-meter race without barriers, the Olympic champion and record lady Sydney McLulin-Lenfron defeated her American competitor Ilya Patler after an exciting race.
In the tendency race, the American Yard Nogus seemed to be on his way to threaten the world record, but he retreated before the end and kidnapped the Dutchman Nelsa Larros winning from him.
“I didn’t achieve the number, but I am in a very good position now,” Nogus said.
