2023 Meeting De Paris
The 2023 Meeting de Paris was the 28th edition of the annual outdoor track and field meeting in Paris, France. Held on 9 June at the Stade Sébastien Charléty, it was the fourth leg of the 2023 Diamond League – the highest level international track and field circuit. This was the fourth time the meeting was held on the stadium's renovated blue running track. The meeting was considered one of the greatest single-day athletics competitions in history, as world records were broken in the men's 3000 m steeplechase, women's 5000 m, and men's two miles. Results Athletes competing in the Diamond League disciplines earned extra compensation and points which went towards qualifying for the Diamond League finals in Zürich. First place earned 8 points, with each step down in place earning one less point than the previous, until no points are awarded in 9th place or lower.
