Michelle Atherley (USA) led after the hurdles. Hall took the lead in the high jump and was never headed again, 219 points clear at the day break and 307 clear with one event to run. The 800m rearranged everything behind her.
Hall's day 1 was worth 4161 and 11 points under her series, the two field events carrying it: 1.95 in the high jump for 1171 points and 39 above the series, 14.86 in the shot for 65 above it. She was 43 under her series after the long jump and took it back with 46.16 in the javelin and 2:01.23 in the 800m, worth 27 more than her series delivers. The 7032 beats the 6988 she scored on the same ground in 2023.
Sofie Dokter (NED) was fourteenth after the hurdles and second from the high jump onward. She spent the whole competition above her series and finished 124 up on it, which is where the personal best came from: 6.42 in the long jump for 51 above her series, and 2:10.88 over 800m for 38 more. Her 6576 beats the 6452 she scored at Paris in August 2024.
Martha Araujo (COL) took third on the last event. She was ninth after the 200m and 29 points under her series, moved to fifth with 6.63 in the long jump for 1049 points and 45 above it, and closed in 2:15.89 for 54 more. The 6475 is a personal best over the 6429 she scored at Talence in September 2024, and it came from a day 2 that beat her own marks by 75.
Behind them the meeting kept producing the same result: Serina Riedel (GER) seventh 244 above her series, Sarolta Kriszt (HUN) tenth 269 above, Sienna Macdonald (CAN) twelfth 269 above, and Sandra Röthlin (SUI) thirteenth 179 above, every one of them a personal best.
