akani simbine leads three south africans into 100m diamond final in zurich

South Africa will field three sprinters in the mens 100m at the Diamond League final in Zurich on Thursday night, with Akani Simbine lining up with two of his Olympic silver 4x100m relay teammates from last year, Bayanda Walaza and Shaun Maswanganyi.

They are among six South Africans in action on the night, with Olympic javelin silver medallist Jo-Ane du Plessis, 800m world indoor champion Prudence Sekgodiso and Zeney van der Walt in the 400m hurdles.

Not all the line-ups are at full strength, like the mens 100m, where Simbine is the only one who competed in the Olympic final at Paris 2024.
