Tokyo Olympic 800m champion Mu was slated for a rematch with British Olympic runner-up Keely Hodgkinson, but this clash will not go ahead after the American withdrew earlier this week.

In the men’s 100m dash, Jacobs, the Olympic gold medalist, will not travel to face-off with a strong field, that also includes world champion, Christian Coleman of USA. Trayvon Bromell and world U20 record-holder Letsile Tebogo have been added to the field.

Elsewhere, Olympic 400m hurdles silver medalist Rai Benjamin has pulled out of the event, along with a host of other top rivals, while Caster Semenya withdrew from the women’s 2-mile race which will see the likes of Sifan Hassan, Beatrice Chebet, Francine Niyonsaba and Whittni Orton Morgan in action.
