The Diamond League makes its penultimate stop before Paris 2024 with some of the world’s best athletes descending on Monaco.

A strong line-up will assemble in the principality for a crucial test of their racing legs with the Olympics just a fortnight away.

The men’s 400 metres hurdles should be hotly contested with the big three all in town, Karsten Warholm bidding to defend his title in Monte Carlo but facing stiff opposition from Rai Benjamin and Alison Dos Santos.

Also of intrigue will be the women’s 100 metres as Dina Asher-Smith looks to build on victory at the European Championships against a field that includes Julien Alfred and Marie-Josée Ta Lou. The male sprinting field’s star quality has been reduced with Noah Lyles electing to withdraw to prioritise preparation for Paris.

Here’s everything you need to know.
