Another 400m race for Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone at NYC Grand Prix

World 400m Hurdles record holder Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone will be making her second season appearance in the 400m flat at the New York City (NYC) Grand Prix on Saturday, June 24th.

McLaughlin-Levrone made her season's debut in the same event at the Paris Diamond League, where she finished second in a Personal Best (PB) of 49.71s.

Marileidy Paulino clocked a Meeting Record (MR) of 49.12s for the win while returning former world champion Salwa Eid Naser was third in 49.95s.

This time around, McLaughlin-Levrone will face a less-stronger field, going against sprints sensation Gabby Thomas, Charokee Young, Lynna Irby-Jackson, Kendall Ellis, Ashley Williams, and Junelle Bromfield.

Meanwhile, in the men's category, a respectable field of Sean Bailey, Matthew Boling, Champion Allison, Trevor Stewart, Zandarion Barnes, Noah Williams, and Michael Ohioze have been lined up to compete against each other.
