Indian sprinter Hima Das extended her sensational run by claiming her fifth gold of the month as she returned to her pet 400 m competition with a season-best time of 52.09 seconds here. However, it was better than the timing of 52.88, which she managed earlier in the season. It was Hima's fifth gold medal since July 2 when she ran her first competitive race in Europe. In her first competitive 200 m race of the year, she clocked 23.65 on her way to gold at the Poznan Athletics Grand Prix in Poland on July 2. After that, she won her second 200 m gold at the Kutno Athletics Meet, also in Poland, on July 7 with a time of 23.97.
