Complete results from Day 1 of the two-day 2021 Diamond League final – Weltklasse Zurich meeting – which took place on Wednesday, September 8. Seven champions were crowned on the first day of action, while the remaining 25 will be confirmed on Thursday’s second day.

Among the athletes wrapping up their season on a winning note was two-time reigning Olympic champion and world record holder Ryan Crouser who finished his outstanding season by securing his first Diamond Trophy win.

Crouser closed out the term by throwing a meeting record of 22.67m in the third round of the men’s Shot Put to win that event over fellow American countryman Joe Kovacs, the Olympic silver medallist and world champion, who threw 22.29m in the second round.
