Jamaica's Yanique Thompson delivered a standout performance at the ISTAF Berlin Meeting in Germany on Sunday, claiming victory in the women's 100m hurdles with an impressive time of 12.73 seconds. Thompson led a Jamaican 1-2 finish, as compatriot Britany Anderson secured second place with a time of 12.89 seconds. The pair dominated the race, leaving Germany's Marlene Meier, who clocked a personal best of 12.93 seconds, to settle for third.

Thompson's victory is a significant achievement as she continues to build momentum in her hurdling career, reaffirming Jamaica's strength in the sprint hurdles on the international stage.

In the men's 110m hurdles, Jamaica's Omar McLeod followed up his third-place finish at the Diamond League Meeting in Rome on Friday with another third-place finish in Berlin. McLeod, the 2016 Olympic champion, crossed the line in 13.28 seconds, behind American Grant Holloway, who won in 13.14 seconds, and France's Rachid Muratake, who clocked 13.21 seconds.

Additionally, Shafiqua Maloney set a new lifetime best and national record in the rarely run women's 600m, finishing second in a fiercely competitive race. Maloney's time of 1:22.98 shattered her previous personal best and established a new benchmark for St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Kenya's Mary Moraa took the win in 1:21.63, while Germany's Alica Schmidt completed the podium in third with a time of 1:24.88.

The ISTAF Berlin Meeting once again proved to be a successful outing for Jamaican athletes, showcasing their talent and determination on the international stage.

Jessica Pegula's all-American Berlin Open semi-final clash with Coco Gauff has been suspended overnight, as the duo vie for a spot in the final against Anna Kalinskaya.

Pegula led Gauff 7-5 6-6 (3-1) when rain in the German capital halted play on Saturday, with a later announcement confirming the match will not resume until Sunday.

Both players had already taken to the court once on Saturday, as Gauff's last-eight opponent Ons Jabeur retired due to illness after losing a 68-minute opening set 7-6 (11-9). 

Pegula, meanwhile, wrapped up a two-day quarter-final victory over Katerina Siniakova by a 7-6 (7-2) 3-6 6-3 scoreline.

The winner of the pair's match will also have to play twice on Sunday, with Kalinskaya lying in wait in the final after she beat former world number one Victoria Azarenka 6-1 6-7 (3-7) 6-1.

Data Debrief: Kalinskaya primed for an upset?

Whoever emerges victorious on Sunday morning, Kalinskaya will face a top-five player, with Gauff currently second in the world rankings and Pegula fifth.

Kalinskaya has already recorded three top-five victories this year. She lost her only previous meeting with Pegula in Washington D.C. in 2019 but won her first clash with Gauff in Dubai earlier this year.

Britany Anderson followed up her third place finish in Poland earlier this week with a victory in the 60m hurdles at the ISTAF Indoor Meeting in Berlin on Friday.

Anderson, the 2022 World Championships 100m hurdles silver medalist, was a model of consistency this week as after running 7.83 in Torun, she clocked 7.87 to win her preliminary round heat before winning the final in 7.85 ahead of Australia’s Michelle Jenneke, who ran a personal best 7.89 for second place.

Natalia Christophi of Cyprus was third in 8.01.

In the men’s equivalent, Olympian Damion Thomas ran a season-best 7.65 to finish second in a close battle with Great Britain’s David King, who ran 7.63 for the win.

Reece Prescod of Great Britain won the 60m dash in a meet record 6.49, which was also a personal best. He held off the challenge of German duo of Joshua Hartmann, who clocked a personal best 6.53 and Julian Wagner (6.56) for second and third, respectively.

Great Britain’s Daryll Neita continued her good form this season with a lifetime best 7.05 to win the Women’s 60m dash.
