Prefontaine Classic 2025: Full Schedule, Preview, Field, Events and How to Watch Diamond League Eugene Live

Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon, will host the Prefontaine Classic, also known as Diamond League Eugene, on Saturday, July 5. Some of the world’s biggest performers will compete in Tracktown, USA, for the event’s 50th anniversary. On Saturday, July 5, NBC Sports and Peacock will broadcast live coverage of the 50th Prefontaine Classic, the premier annual international track and field competition in the United States, from Eugene, Oregon, from 4-6 p.m. ET.

Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone (400m race), Quincy Hall (400m), Athing Mu-Nikolayev (800m), Cole Hocker (mile), Masai Russell (100m hurdles), Rai Benjamin (400m hurdles), Tara Davis-Woodhall (long jump), and Valarie Allman (discus) are among the American Olympic gold medalists competing in the meet.

Athletes are getting ready for the USA Track and Field Outdoor and Para National Championships, which will take place at Hayward Field at the University of Oregon from July 31 to August 3.

Tokyo will host the World Championships from September 13–21.

Faith Kipyegon is running in the women’s 1500-meter race just one week after trying to break the 4:00 mark in the mile.

The women’s 100-meter dash features a star-studded lineup of competitors, including Melissa Jefferson-Wooden, Sha’Carri Richardson, Julien Alfred, Tia, and Tina Clayton. The event is a complete repeat of the 2024 Paris Olympics Podium.

Mya Lesnar, who won an NCAA Championship at the same location only weeks ago, is competing in the shot put, while reigning Olympic champion Tara Davis-Woodhall is leading the long jump.

This year, the race will be called the Mutola 800m in honor of Maria Mutola, who will be honored in the women’s 800m. During her career, Mutola won 16 races in the Prefontaine Classic, 12 of which were in the 800M. With 16 victories, she leads all previous winners of the Prefontaine Classic.

The men’s field is equally packed, with Letslie Tebogo leading the 200-meter race. The field is full of celebrities in the annual Bowerman Mile, a race held only for the Prefontaine Classic in honor of the late coach Bill Bowerman. It should be an entertaining mile race because the competition includes Americans Cole Hocker, Hobbs Kessler, and Grant Fisher in addition to Kenyans Timothy and Reynold Cheruiyot. Nathaniel Ezekiel is participating in the 400-meter hurdles on the same stage where he won the NCAA Championship only a few weeks ago.

Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone is the star of the women’s 400-meter race, which is incredibly fast even though it’s not a Diamond League event.

2025 Prefontaine Classic Events to Watch

Women’s Long Jump (3:38 p.m)

Tara Davis-Woodhall, an American, is the leader of the three 2024 Olympic medalists. With an indoor/outdoor 2025 world record of 7.07 meters, Tokyo Olympic gold champion Malaika Mihambo is only two centimeters ahead of Davis-Woodhall’s best. Since the beginning of 2024, Davis-Woodhall has won all 12 of her competitions, leaving her unbeaten.

Men’s 100m (4:12 p.m)

Olympic silver medallist Kishane Thompson became the sixth-fastest man in history last Friday after winning the Jamaican title in 9.75 seconds, the fastest time in the world in a decade. Thompson went on to say that breaking the world record wouldn’t surprise him. Thompson is currently three hundredths behind the fourth-fastest man in history (Asafa Powell) and one hundredth behind the fifth-fastest man in history (Justin Gatlin); however, Usain Bolt’s 9.58 is still a long way off. Thompson will face American Trayvon Bromell at Pre, whose 9.84 was the top time in the world this year until last Friday.

Women’s 400m (4:51 p.m)

Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone is once more under American record watch. Her 2023 and 2024 timings of 48.74 and 48.75, respectively, rank second and third in U.S. history, behind 2006’s 48.70 set by Sanya Richards-Ross. Last month, McLaughlin-Levrone stated that she intends to compete in the 400-meter hurdles or the 400-meter flat at the USATF Outdoor Championships in an attempt to earn a spot at the global championships in one individual event. Although she has broken the world record for the 400-meter hurdles six times, she has never competed in a global championship in the flat 400-meter sprint. Aaliyah Butler and Bella Whittaker are two Americans in the Pre field who have outperformed McLaughlin-Levrone in 2025.

Women’s 800m (5:34 p.m)

The focus will be on Athing Mu-Nikolayev, the gold medallist from the Tokyo Olympics. She finished ninth in the 2024 Olympic Trials final after falling approximately 200 meters into her last top-level 800m. Six weeks before the trials, she was recovering from a hamstring strain. She has participated in two low-key 1500-meter races thus far in 2025. With 2024 Olympic silver and bronze medalists Tsige Duguma of Ethiopia and Mary Moraa of Kenya, the competition heats up here.

Women’s 100m (5:44 p.m)

Along with training partners Sha’Carri Richardson and Melissa Jefferson-Wooden, Field includes the three medalists from Paris, including Julien Alfred of Saint Lucia. The Olympic bronze medalist Jefferson-Wooden (10.73) and the gold medalist Alfred (10.75) are the fastest women in the world in 2025. On May 18, Richardson scored an 11.47 in his lone race of the year. As the current world champion from 2023, she receives a bye into the worlds; therefore, she does not need to be in top shape for USATF Outdoors. Additionally, keep an eye on Tina and Tia Clayton, 20-year-old Jamaican twins, who placed 10.81 and 10.86 at their national championships last Friday.
