Three days after storming to a world-leading 7.75 seconds over the 60m hurdles in France, Jamaican sprint hurdler Ackera Nugent maintained her fine form by winning the event in 7.79 at the Copernicus Cup in Poland on Sunday.

Nugent, who has been dominant on the European indoor circuit, held off Switzerland’s Ditaji Kambundji, who clocked a personal best 7.80, while Dutch hurdler Nadine Visser finished third in 7.82 (SB).

The men’s 60m hurdles event was expected to feature 2016 Olympic champion Omar McLeod, but the Jamaican failed to show, leaving fans disappointed after his season opener in Berlin last week, where he clocked 7.65 seconds for second place.

Italy’s Zaynab Dosso delivered a season-best 7.05 to claim victory in the women’s 60m, edging out Swiss sprint star Mujinga Kambundji, who clocked 7.07 (SB). Poland’s Ewa Swoboda, a home favorite, took third in 7.10.

Mattia Furlani

The men’s long jump saw Italy’s teenage sensation Mattia Furlani continue his meteoric rise, leaping to a massive 8.37m, which set a personal best, meet record, and world lead. The 19-year-old, who had already shown his potential with an 8.21m jump earlier in the competition, looks to be establishing himself as one of the biggest talents in world athletics.

Behind him, Olympic champion Miltiadis Tentoglou of Greece settled for second with 8.03m, the same mark achieved by Sweden’s Thobias Montler, who finished third.

Jamaica’s Shawn-D Thompson had a challenging outing, managing a best effort of 7.69m, which left him outside the top contenders. Despite the struggles, his mark was a personal best, indicating some progress as the season continues.
