Olympic 400m silver medallist Matthew Hudson-Smith will be headlining a highly anticipated 400m final on Friday at the season-closing Diamond League meet in Brussels.
With a personal and season-best time of 43.44 seconds, Hudson-Smith enters the race as the fastest man in the field, setting the stage for an electrifying end to the season.
The European record holder will face off against a stacked lineup of world-class talent, including Grenada’s Kirani James, Zambia’s Muzala Samukonga, and Great Britain’s own Charlie Dobson.
Hudson-Smith has had a sensational season, clocking the fastest time of his career, and looks poised to cement his position as one of the top 400m runners globally.
However, his path to victory will not be easy. With a field packed with Olympic champions, World Championship medalists, and emerging stars, the race promises to deliver fireworks.
“I do not want to say what I will do, I just want to run my best,” Zambia’s Muzala Samukonga said in the lead-up to the final.
Samukonga, who finished third at the Paris 2024 Olympics, has been in stellar form, recording a personal-best time of 43.74 seconds this season
The Zambian athlete is viewed as one of the top contenders for the title, as his consistently strong performances this year have kept him in the conversation as a serious threat on the global stage.
