The International Meeting of the Province of Liège, which took place Wednesday at the stadium of Naimette-Xhovémont, took his lot of joys and disappointments in the Belgian ranks where we noted the Nafissatou Thiam package in height. The Olympic and world champion suffers from an allergy to a horsefly sting at the ankle of the impulse leg (left).
On the joy side, we can mention the performance of Eline Berings over 100 meters hurdles where it came in 12.72, close to the national record of 1 / 100th of a second. Arnaud Art, for his part, ranked 2nd in the pole vault competition by beating his own national record of 1 centimeter with a jump at 5m72. Robin Vanderbemden, who will take part in the 200-meter European Championships in Berlin, won in the 300 meters (32.44) where he showed a growing condition for the Berlin Euro (8-12 / 08).
The performances of Anne Zagré on 100 meters hurdles and Jonathan Borlée on 300 meters are to put in the disappointments: Zagré missed the subject in Liege (4th in 13.21) and Borlée (2nd in 32.81) s is crushed in the last straight line of the 300 meters, behind Vanderbemden. The two bruxellois are still looking for their European minima.
Internationally, we note, among others, the victory of the 400-meter US world champion and the 4 x 400 meter relay, Phyllis Francis, in 200 meters in 22.92. The height competition, organized in an "intimate" way, with the public gathered around the saltire, saw the victory of the Italian Elena Vallortigara who jumped to 1.91m.
