On Sunday, Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone was the biggest star of the show. After an incredible season opener on Friday, where she clinched the 400m hurdles win with a world-leading time of 52.76s, the American was similarly dominant in the 400m flat.

Running her second race of the year, McLaughlin-Levrone clocked a 50.32 in her non-specialty event, claiming her first Slam win and walking away with the prize money of $100,000.

Behind her, the 400m race of the long hurdles event group saw Andrenette Knight finish second, while Dalilah Muhammad came in third.

The men's 400m flat for the long hurdles event group was a similar story. 400m hurdles race winner Alison Dos Santos put on a spectacular display to win his second race and become a Slam champion. Rounding out the top three behind him were Americans Chris Robinson and Caleb Dean.

Grand Slam Track Kingston: Masai Russell deals with disappointment

Meanwhile, a racer who failed to live up to the expectations at Grand Slam Track Kingston was Masai Russell. The American entered the short hurdles event group of the competition as the reigning 100m hurdles Olympic champion and was expected to be one of the top competitors over the past weekend.

However, on Saturday, during the women's 100m hurdles race, Russell was only able to finish fifth, clocking a time of 12.78s. On Sunday, she registered yet another fifth-place finish, this time in the 100m dash. Overall, the American finished sixth in her first Slam appearance.
