After Rabat, the world's top track and field athletes including India's star steeplechaser Parul Chaudhary are heading towards Eugene, for the fifth leg of the Diamond League 2024 season on Saturday, May 25. (More Sports News)
Parul will be making her Diamond League debut at the women’s 3000m steeplechase event. The 29-year-old has already qualified for Paris Olympic Games 2024, having breached the automatic qualification mark of 9:23.00 seconds at the World Athletics Championships 2023 in Budapest.
The Uttar Pradesh athlete clocked 9:15.31s at the marquee global event last year to better Lalita Babar’s National Record of 9:19.76s, which was set during the Rio Olympics in 2016.
Parul is likely to face stiff competition in Eugene, with world record holder Beatrice Chepkoech in attendance, alongside Commonwealth Games gold medallist Jackline Chepkoech and World Under-20 champion Faith Cherotich (all three from Kenya).
The steeplechaser will no doubt take inspiration from India's golden spearhead Neeraj Chopra, who had finished second at the same venue last year in the 2023 Eugene Diamond League's javelin throw event. Parul herself had bagged gold at the Hangzhou Asian Games' 5,000m steeplechase, and silver in the 3,000m version last year.
