Olympic champion Keely Hodgkinson’s return from injury has been delayed but several other British stars are set to compete at the Stockholm Diamond League on Sunday.
Hodgkinson, 23, was preparing to compete for the first time since winning her first global 800m title at Paris 2024 but she has suffered a setback in her recovery from the hamstring injury she sustained in February.
In her absence, Olympic 1500m bronze medallist Georgia Hunter-Bell and Jemma Reekie contest the women’s 800m against Kenya’s world champion Mary Moraa.
Sprinters Dina Asher-Smith and Daryll Neita come up against Olympic champion Julien Alfred in the 100m, while world indoor champion Amber Anning and Ireland’s Rhasidat Adeleke race over 400m in the Swedish capital.
Innes Fitzgerald, Katie Snowden and Hannah Nuttall are in 3,000m action, with hurdler Alastair Chalmers and discus thrower Lawrence Okoye also competing.
Sweden’s pole vault world record holder Armand Duplantis, Femke Bol and Karsten Warholm are among those also competing as athletes continue to build towards September’s World Championships in Tokyo.
Neita will line up alongside fellow Olympic women’s 4x100m relay silver medal-winner Dina Asher-Smith in the women’s 100m in Stockholm
