The Diamond League meeting in the Silesian Stadium was the second best athletics meeting in the world in 2023. What is more, in the last five years, the only events with higher World Athletics rankings were the finals of the series, which naturally feature the top stars.

25 thousand fans in the Silesian Stadium witnessed the greatest athletics show of the year in Poland. The biggest attraction of the 2023 edition of the Silesia Kamila Skolimowska Memorial, a Diamond League meeting, was Natalia Kaczmarek’s phenomenal 400 metre race.

I'm delighted to be here again. Last year the weather spoiled the jumping, but it's
looking great this time. I feel I have some unfinished business here – stated Armand
Duplantis.

Last winter, his world record was not recognised, as the competition in which he achieved it did not meet World Athletics standards. The shot putter Ryan Crouser, however, continues to amaze. Just recently, the American achieved a distance of 23.56, another all-time best!

The list of stars of the 14th Silesia Kamila Skolimowska Memorial is getting ever longer. The organisers of the Polish stop on the Diamond League circuit have announced the hurdles race on 16 July will feature the two fastest women of all time!

Why have one Olympic champion, when you can have two? Gianmarco Tamberi and Mutaz Essa Barshim made sports history in Tokyo and won the hearts of the fans with their gesture of fair play.
