Diamond League unveils calendar with China races

The Diamond League announced a provisional calendar for the 2022 season yesterday which begins in May and ends with the finale in September, with athletes set to compete in China for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic hit.

The season begins in Doha on May 13 and ends in Zurich on September 7-8 while China hosts meetings in July (in Shanghai) and August. The two meetings in China this year were cancelled due to strict travel restrictions amid the pandemic. “Athletes will compete for points in 13 series meetings from May to September, with the most successful qualifying for the two-day season finale in Zurich and a shot at the prestigious Diamond Trophy,” organizers said. “The calendar remains subject to changes depending on the global health situation in 2022.”
