Shanghai Diamond League meeting in Shanghai, Saturday 18th May 2019:
In the women's 400m, IAAF Diamond League champion Salwa Eid Naser held off Sydney McLaughlin in another eagerly awaited face-off. After contrasting starts - the Bahraini got out quickly while McLaughlin held back - they were virtually even midway through the final turn. As they entered the straight, Naser began to gradually pull away before stopping the clock in 50.65 to the US teenager's 50.78.
