In 2015 DN Galan will be the last Diamond League meeting before the IAAF World Championships in Beijing, which will mean that a host of stars, in peak form for the year\u2019s biggest event, will compete in Stockholm as their final preparation. World Indoor long jump bronze medallist, Michel Torn\u00e9us, was third at DN Galan 2014 with a jump of 8.03m and he has every expectation to jump even further when the event returns to the programme in July next year.<\/span><\/p>\n

A women\u2019s distance event will also feature in the form of 3000m or 5000m. The final decision has yet to be made. Meraf Bahta from the H\u00e4lle IF club on Sweden\u2019s west coat is the reigning European Champion and in 2014 became the first Swede under 15 minutes for 5000m when she set a new Swedish record of 14:59.49. Whichever distance is decided there\u2019s a good chance for another Swedish record. <\/span><\/p>\n

Men\u2019s high jump \u2013 a quality event<\/strong>
The men\u2019s high jump became a constant highlight of the 2014 Diamond League with a series of results over 2.40m by a range of top jumpers. The highest was Qatar\u2019s Mutaz Essa Barshim who cleared 2.43 at the Diamond League Final in Brussels and became the second highest of all time behind World Record holder, Javier Sotomayor (2.45m).<\/span>
Maybe Barshim, or 2.42m Ukrainian, Bohdan Bondarenko, can threaten Patrik Sj\u00f6berg\u2019s stadium record which will have lasted 28 years next year. <\/span><\/p>\n
