Let\u2019s start with a true Olympic champion: among the competitors we will welcome Jamaica\u2019s Hansle Parchment<\/strong>, gold medallist in the men\u2019s 110m hurdles at the Tokyo Olympics and one of the discipline\u2019s most iconic figures. He will be joined by fellow Jamaican Wayne Pinnock<\/strong>, Olympic and World silver medallist in the long jump. In pole vault, the Philippines\u2019 World silver medallist Ernest John Obiena<\/strong> is also set to compete.<\/p>\n The women\u2019s 400m hurdles field – already among the event\u2019s highlights – has been further strengthened with the confirmation of Jamaica\u2019s Rushell Clayton<\/strong>, a two-time World bronze medallist. Hungarian fans will also have someone to cheer for, as Universiade bronze medallist S\u00e1ra M\u00e1t\u00f3<\/strong> is set to represent the host nation.<\/p>\n Staying with women\u2019s hurdles events, the 100m hurdles will feature two-time European Indoor Champion Nadine Visser<\/strong> of the Netherlands. In the 200m, Great Britain\u2019s European silver medallist Daryll Neita<\/strong> aims to deliver a standout performance, while in the 1500m, North and Central American champion Heather MacLean<\/strong> is expected to make a strong impact. And in the women\u2019s long jump, yet another Olympic medallist will be in action: two-time Olympic bronze medallist Jasmine Moore<\/strong> of the USA will compete in the field.<\/p>\n Less than three weeks to go – and the legend continues!<\/p>\n
