The 22-year-old Olympic champion improved his own record, also set in the Serbian capital on March 7, by one centimeter.

The 24-year-old sprinter won his race with 7.39 seconds, equaling the record set in Madrid last February. In the finale, he was a tenth slower than this, but his rivals were still unable to squeeze him.
In the men's 1,500 meters, Samuel Tefera of Ethiopia defended his title with a world championship record, beating world record holder Olympic champion Jakob Ingebrigtsen of Norway.
