Click here to see the summaryYaroslava Mahuchikh and Faith Kipyegon both set world records at the Diamond League track and field meeting in Paris on Sunday.

First the Ukrainian high jumper erased a mark that had stood for 37 years, before the Kenyan middle-distance runner lowered the 1500m record she set last June.

Mahuchikh, the world champion, was elated after setting a new best mark of 2.10 metres.

“Finally I signed Ukraine to the history of world athletics.” The previous record of 2.09m was set by Bulgaria’s Stefka Kostadinova in Rome in 1987.

The 22-year-old Mahuchikh and Nicola Olyaslagers, the world indoor champion, cleared 2.01m on their second attempt.

After Olyslagers failed three times at 2.03m, Mahuchikh cleared that height to secure victory.
