American-born Italian sprinter and long jumper
Romell Glave has won European 100m gold in Birmingham with a 10.09s, while Jeremiah Azu takes silver and Owen Ansah bronze. Britain also sees Matthew Hudson-Smith reach the 400m final amid an injury scare; Jacobs finishes last as he battles fitness. The win marks a one-two for Britain on home soil.
The European championships have begun at Alexander Stadium. Tentoglou has won long jump gold with 8.44m, despite challenging winds; Britain’s Romell Glave wins 100m and Amy Hunt claims women’s gold. Ingebrigtsen returns from Achilles surgery in the 5,000m; attendance faces ticket-price scrutiny.
