Mohammed Aman of Ethiopia kicked off the 2014 Diamond League competition here with a a victory in the 800m, but the World Indoor Champion Genzebe Dibaba finished a disappointing 6th place in the women’s 3,000m race.
Despite not being a Diamond League event, the men’s 800 m boasted an impressive field and Ethiopia’s world indoor and outdoor champ Mohammed Aman had to work hard for victory, his 1:44.49 just enough to edge Nijel Amos with 1:44.54. Britain’s Andrew Osagie had to settle for eighth with 1:46.08
