It\u2019s been a dominant week for Great Britain\u2019s sprinters, who won both 4x100m relays last night and can complete the set with the <strong>mixed 4x100m<\/strong> event this evening. <strong>Amy Hunt<\/strong> set her sights on four goals at the start of the week and, after winning in the 100m, 200m and women\u2019s 4x100m relay, she is well on course.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">The session starts with the <strong>men\u2019s pole vault<\/strong>, which is just as well because Sweden\u2019s <strong>Mondo Duplantis<\/strong> tends to be the last person performing at the end of a session. He <em>has<\/em> broken the world record this year but that was back in March and he was beaten at his home Diamond League in Stockholm by Australia\u2019s Kurtis Marschall in June. Surely he won\u2019t suffer another shock?<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">A lot of attention will be on the <strong>women\u2019s 1500m<\/strong> as Britain\u2019s <strong>Georgia Hunter Bell<\/strong> goes for her first European title, but she could be pushed all the way by France\u2019s Agathe Guillemot. Sarah Healy is in with a shout of Ireland\u2019s fifth medal of these championships. We\u2019ve also got <strong>men\u2019s and women\u2019s 4&#215;400 relays<\/strong> to finish the night.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">There is plenty more to keep an eye on with javelin, long jump and steeplechase finals too.
