Five events not to miss
1 Women’s 100m 2.40pm
Usain Bolt may be coming to the end of his reign as the king of global sprinting but Elaine Thompson, above, looks set to take charge as the sport’s queen. A double Olympic champion last summer, Thompson ran an astonishing 10.71 seconds at the Jamaican trials last month and is the woman to beat here. She faces competition from Michelle-lee Ahye and Dafne Schippers, as well as British contenders led by Dina Asher-smith, on the comeback from a broken foot.
2 Men’s 200m 2.13pm
Some of the world’s fastest men are absent, but the 200m gained added significance after the British trials last weekend. That event saw Adam Gemili and Zharnel Hughes, above, both miss out on automatic selection for the World Championships and left the duo facing a straight shoot-out for the final 200m spot on the British team. Up against American champion Ameer Webb, whoever triumphs in the battle of the home sprinters will surely force the selectors’ arm.
3 Women’s mile 3.38pm
Over the past year, Laura Muir has launched an all-out assault on the British record books. One mark she is yet to achieve is Zola Budd’s national record for the mile and it is in her sights as she builds towards a 1500m-5,000m double at the World Championships. Hellen Obiri, below, claimed silver over the longer distance at the Rio Olympics and will be in the one-mile field in London, alongside Kenyan team-mate Winny Chebet.
4 Men’s 110m hurdles 3.28pm
After years spent battling debilitating foot injuries, Andrew Pozzi is finally showing the benefit of sustained fitness and targeting a medal at the upcoming World Championships. He comes here fresh off the back of a personal best 13.14sec last weekend, but will face the best in the world. Olympic champion Omar Mcleod aside, all the quickest men will compete, including Garfield Darien, Ronald Levy, Devon Allen and Aries Merritt, above.
5 Women’s long jump 2.37pm
Britain has never had such strength in this event and Shara Proctor, right, Lorraine Ugen and Katarina Johnsonthompson – the country’s all-time top three – will all compete on Sunday. They will not have it their own way, with all three medallists from the Rio Olympics also in attendance. Brittney Reese has jumped furthest this outdoor season, closely followed by American team-mate Tianna Bartoletta, but Serbia’s Ivana Spanovic bettered both their marks indoors.
