Olympic bronze medalist Rajindra Campbell broke his Jamaican national record in the shot put while Shericka Jackson lowered her season’s best in the 200m at Saturday’s second Diamond League meeting in Xiamen, China.
Campbell, who was one of four Jamaican athletes whose applications to switch national allegiance to Turkiye were recently rejected by World Athletics, threw 22.34m to beat his previous best 22.31m set in Croatia in 2024.
He moved up to second in the world rankings with his throw, which was enough to beat the Americans pair of Jordan Geist, 21.52m, and Ryan Crouser who had a season’s best 21.41m.
