Australians Send Records – and Competitors – Tumbling in London

LONDON, JUL 19 – Jess Hull improved her own Oceanian mile record to 4:13.68 while finishing second behind Gudaf Tsegay at a Diamond League event, as Australian athletes set multiple national records.

  • On July 19, 2025, at the London Diamond League meeting, Jess Hull broke her Australian and Oceanian mile records, finishing second to Gudaf Tsegay’s 4:11.88 win.
  • In a warm-up featuring record bids, Australia’s athletes used the meeting to prepare for the Tokyo Worlds, with Rose Davies obliterating her 5000m marks before 60,000 spectators.
  • In a dramatic late-race incident, Cam Myers clipped heels with George Mills 200m from the finish, bringing down Robert Farken, and Myers limped home 13th in 4:24.03.
  • At the London Stadium, Eleanor Patterson cleared 1.93m to take silver amid an off-day for Yaroslava Mahuchikh, and she said, `I am very honoured to be known as 'Miss Consistent'`.
  • Looking ahead to Tokyo, Kenya’s Phanuel Koech, who will be a long-time rival of Cam Myers after his fastest-ever UK 3:28.82 win, sets a high bar for their showdown.
