In Andy Diaz Hernandez (Italy), Jordan Scott (Jamaica) and Pedro Pichardo (Portugal) are three jumpers from the top five in the world’s best list in the final. Budapest world champion Hugues Fabrice Zango (Burkina Faso) is also included. It will probably be a close decision – without the Max Hess, which was struck in the qualification and therefore left.

Emil Agyekum stormed into the final with a personal best (47.83 seconds) – and also took second place in the eternal German leaderboard behind Harald Schmid. Is more for the Berliner?
