The London/Gateshead Diamond League (also known as the British Grand Prix 2021) will feature a star-studded line-up, similar to Tokyo Olympics 2020, at Gateshead on July 13.
The London/Gateshead Diamond League is the last competitive tournament before the Tokyo Olympics 2020.
Leading the field are world champions Katarina Johnson-Thompson, Dina Asher-Smith, Johannes Vetter, Sifan Hassan, Keshorn Walcott, Katerina Stefanidi, Omar McLeod and Trayvon Bromell who have humongous experience of stepping up when it matters.

Also, what makes the London/Gateshead Diamond League interesting is the fact that all athletes combined have a total of close to 150 world and Olympic medals among them. It gives us a sneak peek into the quality of the field, which is only second to the Tokyo Olympics 2020 in recent times.
The London/Gateshead Diamond League will commence on July 13 with the 100m mixed category and will culminate with the men’s 3,000m race.
