After enthralling Doha and Birmingham, the athletic caravan is now all set for the Eugene Diamond League, commonly known as the Prefontaine Classic, scheduled to be held from May 27-28.
Hayward Field is all decked up to host the cream of the athletics world as intense rivalries promise to make the Eugene Diamond League a humdinger.
The women's competitions are the two mile, 5,000m, high jump, long jump, 100m, discus, 100m hurdles, 1,500m, 800m, 3,000m steeplechase and the 200m events.
The men's events include the 5,000m, 1,500m, pole vault, 400m hurdles, 5,000m, 400m, shot put, 100m and the Bowerman Mile race.
All eyes will be on Elaine Thompson-Herah in the women's 100m event, a happy hunting ground for the athlete. It was at Hayward Field where Thompson-Herah set a personal best in the 2021 edition of the Diamond League. She will be up against Sha'Carri Richardson, Dina Asher-Smith and the likes of Shericka Jackson.
In the women's 200m event, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce along with Mujinga Kambundji and Shaunae Miller, will be setting the tracks on fire.
Armand Mondo Duplantis will be gunning to breach the 6.15m mark in the men's pole vault as Jakob Ingebrigtsen will be keen to retain the Bowerman Mile race title.
Sifan Hassan will be the one to watch in the women's 5,000m event and she will need to stave off a stiff challenge from Francine Niyonsaba, who is gunning to set a world record.
In the men's 100m event, USA's Fred Kerley, Christian Coleman, Noah Lyles and Andre De Grasse are in the mix. The notable absentee is Tokyo Olympic gold medalist Marcell Jacobs, who has pulled out of the Eugene Diamond League due to a muscle injury.
