Diamond League Zürich 2025 Day 1 Updates (Wednesday, August 27)

4:30 PM ET Women's Shot Put Update

The Zurich Diamond League media team has released a statement confirming Jessica Schilder as women's shot put champion. Jessica Schilder has been declared the winner of the women's shot put and therefore Wanda  Diamond  League  champion after a protest against  Sarah  Mitton's  second-round throw was upheld. 

Mitton's  throw  was  initially  recorded  at  20.67m,  but  a  protest  was  lodged  within  the required 30-minute window. Following a review by the judges, Mitton was ruled to have stepped out of the circle  before the shot hit the ground, thereby making her throw invalid. 

Schilder's 20.26m in the fourth round was therefore ruled to be the winning throw.

2:25 PM ET - Women's Shot Put (Updated Results Post-Event) 

Following the conclusion of competition, there have been updates to the women's shot put results. 

Previously Sarah Mitton, of Canada, was declared the winner by virtue of a 20.67m mark on her second throw. That mark now reads as a foul, which alters the order of the top three. 

Jessica Schilder (Netherlands) has been upgraded to the Diamond League shot put champion and Chase Jackson (USA) moves up to second place. 

Mitton now lands in the third spot overall via a 19.99m effort from her final attempt. 

Updated Results

1) Jessica Schilder (20.26m)

2) Chase Jackson (20.08m)

3) Sarah Mitton (19.99m) 

12:35 PM ET - Men's Long Jump

Capturing the 2025 Diamond League title on the familiar confines of home soil was Simon Ehammer. The Swiss native produced a series best jump of 8.32m (-0.6) on his third attempt of the competition. 

Next in the standings was Mattia Furlani, who threatened Ehammer's lead with an 8.30 (+0.7) showing on his fifth jump, but ultimately the Italian settled for second place overall. 

Occupying third place was Liam Adcock. Like Mattia, the Australian also turned it up late, delivering his top jump of 8.24m (-0.3) on his sixth and final jump.

11:43 AM ET - Men's Pole Vault

It was tighter than usual, but once again Swedish legend Armand Duplantis ended up getting the job done. 

Mondo collected his latest victory with a 6.00m clearance, winning on attempts over runner-up Emmanouil Karalis, who cleared 6.00m on his third and final attempt. 

Duplantis maintained a clean sheet to that point, clearing 5.50m, 5.80m, 5.90m and then 6.00m on his first vaults. 

Both athletes concluded their day with missed attempts at 6.10m. 

American Sam Kendricks took third overall by successfully clearing a 5.80m bar. 

11:15 AM ET - Women's High Jump

Accolades galore highlighted the women's high jump event. It took a 2025 world leading clearance of 2.04m to secure victory for Nicola Olyslagers. The Australian was locked-in all day, clearing 1.91m, 1.94m, 1.97m, 2.00m, 2.02m and the Diamond League Championship clinching 2.04m all in singular attempts. Her competition concluded with looks at a 2.06m bar. Olyslagers' successful 2.04m effort is recognized as a new Oceania record and it just narrowly missed the all-time meeting best of 2.05m set in 2021 by Mariya Lasitskene. 

Capturing second overall was Yaroslava Mahuchikh, who jumped a season's best 2.02m. Mahuchikh was the reigning world leader heading into today's event by virtue of her 2.02m performance from Doha back in May. 

Morgan Lake was next in the standings, placing third overall at 2.00m. The performance represents a new national record for the Great Britain native.  

11:05 AM ET - Women's Shot Put 

(Original Women's Shot Put Update - See article header for updated standings)

Sarah Mitton emerged victorious in the women's shot put competition, hitting a 20.67m mark on the second throw of her series. A north of the border native, Mitton's winning mark was a season's best effort and is just narrowly shy of her 20.68 personal record. An Olympic veteran and multiple time World Indoor champion, the Canadian is on the short-list of pre-meet gold medal favorites as we approach next month's World Track and Field Championships. 

Jessica Schilder claimed runner-up honors with her 20.26m performance. Schilder, from the Netherlands, moved ahead of Chase Jackson with her series best throw coming on attempt number four. 

Jackson finished her day in the third position via a 20.08m performance on throw number two. The American struggled to keep her throws in-bounds with just one other valid attempt (19.61m on her fourth throw). 

Rounding out the USA contingent was Jaida Ross in fourth place (19.26m) and Maggie Ewen occupying the sixth spot in the standings (18.45m). 

11:05 AM ET - Men's Shot Put

On the heels of a 22.46m showing, Joe Kovacs claimed the shot put win. He got his day off to a solid start opening with a 21.79m, he then pushed that mark to 22.10m on his next attempt. The owner of the meeting record (23.23m from back in 2022), Kovacs hit his 22.46m winner on throw four. 

USA competitors Payton Otterdahl and Adrian Piperi landed at numbers two and four overall, with Otterdahl throwing 22.07m and Piperi showcasing a 21.84 series best toss. 

Between them was Jamaican Rajindra Campbell in third place at 21.87m. 

8:30 AM ET - Women's Pole Vault

The women's pole vault competition kicked-off Day 1 of the 2025 Diamond League Zürich meeting. Event organizers opted to adjust the start time to 8:30 am EDT due to rainfall anticipated locally later in the day. 

When the vaulting commenced, Katie Moon continued her exceptional form, eventually winning the event with a successful clearance at 4.82m. The multiple time Olympic medalist was unsuccessful in her initial attempt at 4.89m and then (with the competition secured) opted to move the bar up to 4.90m. She was all smiles following her second (and final) attempt at the height. While ultimately unsuccessful at 4.90m, she had a great look at that bar. The 4.90m attempt was an attack on what would have represented the 2025 world lead for competition taking place outdoors. 

Moon, the winner in Brussels last week at 4.85m, secured her status as the 2025 Diamond League champion and now heads toward the 2025 World Track and Field Championships with significant momentum. 

It was an American sweep of the top three positions with Sandi Morris and Emily Grove occupying second and third place, respectively, with matching 4.75m vaults. 

Morris wrapped up her day with high quality attempts at 4.89m. The 4.75m mark that Grove delivered represents a season's best and equals her career best performance.
