Australia’s Nina Kennedy and the USA’s Katie Moon will go head to head as part of a world-class women’s pole vault competition at Zurich train station on August 26.
Olympic champion Kennedy and world champion Moon will headline the traditional train station pole vault showdown, which will be the first Diamond League event of this year’s Weltklasse Zurich.
They will be joined on the runway by current world number two Sandi Morris, world championship bronze medallist Tina Šutej and Swiss star Angelica Moser.
Moon is the defending Diamond League champion this season, having won the title for the second time in three years in Zurich last September.
Kennedy missed much of last season through injury but enjoyed a winning return to Diamond League action in Rabat last month.
Zurich is the 14th leg of the 2026 Wanda Diamond League, which began in Shanghai/Keqiao on May 16 and ends at the two-day series final in Brussels on September 4-5.
The series unites the biggest names in track and field in some of the world’s most iconic arenas, crossing four continents and 15 cities over the course of the season.
