The sprint hurdles were fast, too. Russian record holder Sergey Shubenkov impressed in the men's 110m Hurdles, again equalling his 13.09 national mark, well clear of 2009 World champion Ryan Brathwaite (13.23). In the women's 100m Hurdles race, Ginnie Crawford, who looked strong for seven hurdles in Stockholm last Friday, was even better in Linz, winning comfortably in 12.68 from Queen Harrison (12.77) and Olympic bronze medallist Kellie Wells (12.83).

Ruth Bisibori was a distant third in 9:36.10 to round out a Kenyan top-three. In the women's 800m Hannah England showed that it doesn't take a big field to produce a strong performance. In a race with just four starters and three finishers, England won in 1:59.66. Anna Pierce of the U.S. was second in 2:00.49, with Molly Beckwith (2:00.73) third.
