Two US athletes will be looking to win their third titles in their respective events as the Diamond League moves to Stockholm Thursday. Kendra Harrison has already set American and Diamond League records in the 100m hurdles while winning in Eugene and Birmingham. She’ll look to make it three in three tries on Thursday after having not participated in the race in Oslo last week. Christian Taylor also did not compete in Oslo, in the triple jump, but won the event in both Doha and Eugene to start the year. Michael Tinsley is also going for a third win this year, in the 400m hurdles, but Tinsley has the distinction of having gone for the same feat last week and finishing third in Oslo. Tinsley is joined in the field by Kerron Clement who was second in Eugene and Bershawn Jackson who was third in Eugene.
Dentarius Locke is the lone American in the 100m after grabbing third in Oslo last week. Brittney Reese (first in Eugene) and Tianna Bartoletta (third in Shanghai) will give the US two of the top competitors in the long jump.
