The Golden Gala was moved to Florence this year as some building was being done in the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. The meet was amazing this year, with one competitive race and an event after another.
Besides the goofy field event addition on the final 3 throws or jumps, the meet was mind boggling. Sifan Hassan and Jakob Ingebrigtsen, plus Dina Asher-Smith and Sandra Perkovic entertained the global audience!
