LIVE UPDATES: Paris Diamond League
Stay tuned to this page for live updates from the IAAF Paris Diamond League meeting, highlighted by Emma Coburn's American record attempt in the 3K steeplechase (the magic number is 9:07.63). Read the meet preview here and follow the action from 2 PM to 4 PM Eastern.

Men's Triple Jump


Christian Taylor, who intentionally fouled out at USAs to ensure his health for the European circuit, gets the last laugh with a win here in Paris after winning in Ostrava a few days ago. U.S. champion Will Claye, his former teammate at the University of Florida, is second.

Men's 200m


3:52 PM ET

U.S. champion Ameer Webb headlines here!

Webb is never really in the race and finishes just fourth overall in 20.48, well off his season-best of 20.09 as Turkey's Ramil Guliyev wins in 20.15.

Women's 1500m


3:40 PM ET

Exciting race set here between world leader Sifan Hassan, who has twice run 3:56 this year, vs. Olympic champion Faith Kipyegon.

Hassan and Kipyegon quickly assume 1-2 position behind pacemaker, who is prescribed to run 2:06 through 800m.

The group passes through 800m in 2:05.70, Hassan, Kipyegon in 1-2

2:55 on the clock at the bell lap! Kipyegon making a move, trying to challenge on the outside but Hassan is not letting her go by! It's a two woman race as Tsegay is five meters behind.

Coming off the turn and Hassan is accelerating and she will not give an inch! Hassan takes down Olympic champ in 3:57.10.


Men's 110m Hurdles


3:25 PM ET

Omar McLeod and Devon Allen! Lol they are playing the Darth Vader theme song at the start.

And as is the theme of the day... false start. The announcers think it's Devon Allen. Yep... it's Devon Allen.

The race is finally off and McLeod is nowhere to be seen -- literally finishes last, outside of this finish line screenshot in 13.41 and collapses on the track with what appears to be a strain or some sort of injury. His Jamaican countryman Ronald Levy runs 13.05 for the surprise win.


Women's 3K Steeplechase


3:00 PM ET

Okay, the race we've all been waiting for! Go Emma!


First water jump is safe... Coburn is in seventh position after two laps

Chepkoech leads a pack of five about 10-15 meters ahead of Coburn, who is in eighth -- passing 1K in about 3:00

Okay, cut to commercials... the announcers just said the stream will return for the end of the race. Wish I could tell more about individual splits. According to live results, Chespol leads Chepkoech, Kiyeng, Jebet and Coburn with two laps to go

Okay, we're back! About 6:20 on the clock. World record holder Jebet falls! She is probably out of it now. Chespol leads with Chepkoech on her tail. Kiyeng is about 10 meters back followed by Jebet, who is trailed by Coburn.


Wow, upset city! Chepkoech takes over the lead from Chespol at the bell. Kiyeng is closing super hard on Chespol, she's going to place third!

Chepkoech 9:01.69, defending world champion Kiyeng runs 9:06.00.

Coburn will place fifth in 9:11.08, the fifth-fastest performance in American history but four seconds shy of her record.


Men's Pole Vault


1:32 PM ET

French world record holder Renaud Lavillenie accepts a rare defeat at home at the hands of American Sam Kendricks, who cleared 6.00m for the first time in his career to win USAs last weekend. Today, 5.82m is all he needs for a win as Lavillenie misses three attempts at 5.77m and has a highest mark today of 5.62m. Kendricks retires after clearing 5.82m.



Men's 100m


2:50 PM ET

This isn't a Diamond League race, so not quite as star-studded as the women's 100m or some of the other races today.

False start. Kim Collins is DQed.

Another false start... Emmanuel Matadi is out.

Ben Youssef Meite wins in 9.99, a season-best and just off PB of 9.96. Yunier Perez of Cuba is second in 10.05, a PB.

Men's High Jump


1:08 PM ET

Olympic silver medalist Mutaz Essa Barshim wins with 2.35m clearance. 


Men's 800m


2:40 PM ET

Nijel Amos settles behind the pacer, about 28 seconds opening 200m

Bett makes a huge move with 200m to go, but Amos is still there!

Amos is able to hold off the Kenyans Bett and Rotich to win in 1:44.24.

Women's 100m


2:29 PM ET

American Morolake Akinosun looking for some redemption here after finishing fourth at USAs. She'll race Olympic champion Elaine Thompson, world leader this year.

False start! The announcers think it was Ta Lou of Côte d'Ivoire, but she's still allowed to run. 

Lined up and just called them back again... jeez.

Ok, third time's the charm. Thompson doesn't let this faze and dips under 11 seconds to win in 10.91. Not quite as fast as we've seen her go this year (10.71) but certainly the class of the field. 

Ta Lou also cracks 11 in 10.96, not sure if she will be disqualified.

Akinosun is seventh in 11.27, not a great race for the woman who won the Prefontaine Classic earlier this season.


Men's 3K


2:14 PM ET

Two of the hottest Kenyans in the game this year will meet for the first time in 2017: Ronald Kwemoi, who won the Bowerman Mile at Prefontaine, and Yomif Kejelcha, who almost dethroned Mo Farah in the Pre Classic 5K.

The pacing is targeted for about 7:30. There's two pacemakers: Collins Cheboi and Cornelius Kiplagat.

Kwemoi and Kejelcha are running right behind Cheboi and Kiplagat as the entire field has strung out in single file.

Two laps to go: there's American Ben True, making an aggressive move into the top four! A lot of movement right now, Kejelcha leads and True moves into second with Edris in third with 600m to go!

Off the final turn, Edris is the one to accelerate the best past pre-race favorites Kwemoi and Kejelcha; he'll win in 7:32.31.


Men's 110m Hurdles


3:25 PM ET (Final)

Devon Allen takes second in his heat in 13.10, a season-best, and will advance to the final. Sergey Shubenkov wins in 13.09.

In the second heat, Olympic champion Omar McLeod wins easily in 13.13.

Women's 400m


2:03 PM ET

Courtney Okolo is the lone American here and she has something to prove after placing eighth in the finals at USAs. She said after that performance that she didn't feel race-sharp. 

Looks like my TV broadcast is a little behind, but the live results don't lie: Novlene Williams-Mills of Jamaica wins in 51.03 over Okolo, who runs 51.19. Shericka Jackson of Jamaica is third in 51.91.
