Who should I look out for?

This event will mark Dina Asher-Smith’s international return to athletics alongside many of the world’s best track and field stars. Asher-Smith has not competed at an indoor event since 2018.

The reigning world 200m champion and Olympic medallist will compete in the 60m as she continues her preparation for a medal charge at the Tokyo Olympics later this year. Fellow Briton Andrew Butchart will feature in the distance events.
