100m gold medallist Julien Alfred and double Olympic champion Beatrice Chebet will also be looking to extend their impressive winning streaks in Eugee.
US fans will also have plenty of big names to cheer, with the likes of Sha’Carri Richardson, Tara Davis-Woodhall and Quincy Hall all eyeing glory at their home Diamond League meeting.
