Countdown to the 2022 Wanda Diamond League

The 2022 Wanda Diamond League will get underway in Doha as the Qatari capital hosts the 13th series of the sport’s premier one-day meetings. Throughout the circuit, which spans five months and takes in 14 cities around the globe, the world’s best athletes will battle it out for a place in the Wanda Diamond League Final in Zurich on 7-8 September.

After the season opener in Doha on 13 May and a trip to Birmingham eight days later, athletes will have the chance to test out the host venue for the 2022 World Athletics Championships when the series arrives in Eugene on 28 May. The world's best will then head to Rabat on 5 June, before returning to Europe for the rest of the month with meetings in Rome, Oslo, Paris, and Stockholm.

Following the World Championships, the Wanda Diamond League will return to China for the first time since 2019, with the Shanghai Diamond League set for 30 July and a stop in Shenzhen, the newest addition to the series, on 6 August.

Many of the world’s leading athletes have been confirmed for the first few meetings in the series. Doha, for example, will stage a mouth-watering 400m hurdles clash between Olympic silver medallist Rai Benjamin, Olympic bronze medallist Alison Dos Santos and world bronze medallist Abderrahman Samba – three of the five fastest men of all time.

Olympic champions Mutaz Barshim, Gianmarco Tamberi, Mondo Duplantis and Neeraj Chopra have also been confirmed for the series opener.
