Australian athletes Nina Kennedy, Mackenzie Little and Oliver Hoare have geared up for the Paris Olympics with victories at the London Diamond League on Saturday, while the women’s 4x100m relay team impressed with another area record.
Reigning joint-world champion Kennedy cleared 4.85m to win the women’s pole vault, as Little threw a personal best of 66.27m to take out the women’s javelin at London Stadium. Hoare finished first in the men’s one mile with a season-best 3:49.03 to secure his first Diamond League victory and round out Australia’s biggest gold medal haul in one day of the elite athletics series.
