OSLO (Reuters) - World champion Dafne Schippers was involved in a bizarre women's 200 metres at the Oslo Diamond League meeting on Thursday when the Dutchwoman false-started, was allowed to race and won, was then disqualified and finally reinstated. "It was noisy at the start, so much noise, very hard to concentrate," said Schippers. However, one hour later, the Diamond League organisers tweeted: "Confirmation: Dafne Schippers reinstated as winner in the 200m with a time of 22.31." "It felt good, the weather was great, I ran my season best," said De Grasse after winning at the Oslo Diamond League meeting for the second year running. Can not believe I've just won a Diamond League," the 22-year-old Scot said on Twitter.
