Monaco Diamond League: Preview, Time, Schedule and Where to Watch Faith Kipyegon and Co Compete

The world of athletics turns its attention to Monaco this Friday, July 10, for the Meeting Herculis EBS, the 10th stop on the 2026 Diamond League circuit.

The event promises a thrilling night of competition, featuring a host of Olympic and world champions. Among the elite athletes scheduled to compete are three-time Olympic champion Faith Kipyegon, Olympic 100m champion Julien Alfred, 100m world champion Oblique Seville.

Pole vault world record holder Armand ‘Mondo’ Duplantis will also be in action, though the men's pole vault is a non-Diamond League event at this meet.

The men's 100m, the final event of the evening at the Louis-II stadium, is set to be a major highlight. Oblique Seville enters as the favourite, holding the current world-leading time of 9.82 seconds.

He will face a stiff challenge from Letsile Tebogo, the Paris 2024 Olympic 200m champion, who is looking to improve on his recent second-place finish in Eugene.

Another premier clash awaits in the women's 200m, where Olympic 100m champion Julien Alfred will go head-to-head with Gabby Thomas, the reigning Olympic 200m champion, in her first Diamond League appearance of the season.

Faith Kipyegon makes a quick return to the track after competing in the women's mile in Eugene. The five-time world champion will contest the women's 3000m, where she will be joined by Australia's Jessica Hull.

Fast times are also anticipated in the 400m events. Botswana's world champion Busang Collen Kebintshipi aims to continue his strong form from the Eugene Diamond League.

In the women's race, Marileidy Paulino of the Dominican Republic, a gold medalist at Paris 2024, will be looking to better her own world-leading time of 48.48 seconds.

Olympic 800m champion Emmanuel Wanyonyi is set to compete in the men's 1000m, facing Algeria's Djamel Sedjati and 2022 world champion Jake Wightman of Great Britain.

The field events will also feature world-class talent. With Mondo Duplantis on the runway, his own meeting record of 6.05m could be in jeopardy. In the women's pole vault, a headline matchup pits US world champion Katie Moon against Australia's Olympic champion Nina Kennedy.

The event takes place on Friday, July 10. All times are local in EAT.
