Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone Out of Diamond League Finals Due to Eligibility Rules

Double Olympic champion and world record holder Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone will not be able to compete in the Diamond League Finals in Brussels. Despite receiving an invitation, she doesn’t meet the eligibility criteria as she hasn’t participated in any regular Diamond League events this season. The Diamond League’s CEO Petr Stastny clarified that the rules apply to all athletes and require either point accumulation or participation in a regular-season event to be eligible for a wildcard.
