Diamond League Rome Hosts 14 Events, 11 Olympic Champs

The 2025 Wanda Diamond League Golden Gala Pietro Mennea in Rome marks the fifth stop on the 15-meet calendar, featuring 14 events that contribute to Diamond League points standings. Over 60 Olympic and World Championships medalists, including 11 Olympic champions, are competing at Stadio Olimpico. Standout athletes include Olympic high jump champion Gianmarco Tamberi, distance star Beatrice Chebet, and 400m Olympic gold medalist Quincy Hall. The event is broadcast internationally through channels such as FloTrack, BBC Four, and CBC Sports. Taking place during a key European segment of the season after previous meets in Asia and Africa, the Rome meet is a major lead-up to the Zurich finale. Anticipation is particularly high for the women's 5000m, where Beatrice Chebet faces world record holder Gudaf Tsegay.
