Brazil’s Alison Dos Santos coasts to Diamond League 400mH trophy as Jamaica’s Roshawn Clarke falters

Brazil’s Alison Dos Santos has ended his season on a high by running a blistering 47.93 run in Brussels to take home the 2024 Diamond League trophy on Saturday night.

Dos Santos edged out Qatar’s Abderrahman Samba, who crossed the line  in 48.20 and Rasmus Magi of Estonia, who finished third on 48.26.

America’s CJ Allen just missed out on the podium in fourth place, while Roshawn Clark finished fifth after faltering in the seventh hurdle which prevented him from repeating his heroics from Zurich a week ago.

Clarke was looking on course to genuinely challenge his Brazilian counterpart, but he mistimed the hurdle down the turn which made him lose momentum at a crucial point in the race.
