Dobson wows London!

July 22, 2025

Saturday saw yet another great Diamond League event in the capital, with more superb performances by British athletes. Club members voted Charlie Dobson's stunning victory over Matt Hudson-Smith in the 400m as their Memorable Moment of the day's competition in front of a sell-out crowd. He improved his personal best to 44.14s and moved up to second in the European all-time list.

Two other athletes made it to the shortlist. Georgia Hunter-Bell showed that she is a force to be reckoned with in the 800m as well as the 1500m. She won the two lap race in a time of 1:56.74 with a season's best performance. Morgan Lake equalled her season's best of 1.96s in the high jump beating the world-record holder in the process. After winning the event she attempted to break the British record coming very close to achieving 2m on her third attempt.

Plenty of other athletes impressed too, including Innes Fitzgerald who smashed Zola Budd's European U20 record for the 5000m.
