Two World Records Shattered in Zurich | Belfast News

Zurich erupted with record-shattering speed this week as Brazil’s Alison Dos Santos obliterated the 400m hurdles mark in 45.80 seconds, and American Masai Russell stunned the world with a 12.09-second run in the women’s 100m hurdles—both pocketing $80K for their historic feats. In a pole vault duel for the ages, Armand Duplantis edged out Greece’s Emmanouil Karalis at 6.25m, the first time either cleared 6.20m. Beyond the records, Audrey Werro nearly broke the 800m mark, while Wanyonyi led the pack in the 800m and standout performances lit up the 1500m and 200m. These electrifying displays underscore the relentless pursuit of excellence—and why athletics remains the ultimate showcase of human potential.
