Meanwhile, Olympic and world champion Duplantis suffered his first Diamond League defeat in three years.<\/p>\n
In March, the 26-year-old broke the world record for the 15th time, with a jump of 6.31m slightly north of Stockholm in Uppsala.<\/p>\n
But the best he could muster on Sunday was 5.80m, second to Australia’s Kurtis Marschall (5.90m).<\/p>\n
“I felt I was pretty unfocused, not ready to compete at the top level,” said Duplantis, who is getting married next week. “I feel bad for my fans and family but I am not that mad.<\/p>\n
“We have a saying in Sweden that says you are either lucky in games or in love, and in some strange way I think there’s some message or silver lining in this that says something about the commitment that I am about to make in my marriage.”<\/p>\n
There was one local win in the men’s discus for Daniel Stahl, with the world champion’s throw of 69.60m beating Australia’s Matthew Denny (69.02) and Slovenia’s Kristjan Ceh (67.67).<\/p>\n
Britain’s Lawrence Okoye was eighth with 64.02, some way short of his season’s best (71.88). <\/p>\n
In the women’s 100m, Britain’s Amy Hunt ran a personal best 10.97 seconds to finish second to America’s Melissa Jefferson-Wooden. Dina Asher-Smith was sixth in 11.24. <\/p>\n
British sprinter Jeremiah Azu was disqualified after a false start in the men’s 200m, which was won by American Kenneth Bednarek in 19.87 seconds, with South Africa’s Sinesipho Dambile second in 20.10.<\/p>\n
GB’s Elise Thorner was second in the women’s 3000m steeplechase, finishing almost 12 seconds behind Tunisia’s Marwa Bouzayani, who won in a meeting record eight minutes and 59.28 seconds. <\/p>\n
Charlie Dobson was fifth in the men’s 400m, won by South Africa’s Zakithi Nene in 44.48 seconds. <\/p>\n
The men’s 800m was won by America’s Cooper Lutkenhaus in a season’s best one minute 42.70 seconds, with GB’s Ben Pattison (1:43.70) and Jake Wightman (1:44.39) fourth and seventh respectively. <\/p>\n
American middle-distance runner Yared Nuguse outlasted 19-year-old Australian Cam Myers to snatch victory in the men’s 1500m.<\/p>\n
There was another meeting record in the women’s shot put with the Netherlands’ Jessica Schilder registering 20.89m. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
