One week before he celebrates his 29th Birthday Renaud Lavillenie will again be present at the AG Insurance Memorial Van Damme. Lavillenie has collected almost as many titles now as did his big idol Sergej Bubka. World Champion in Athletics is the only global title that Lavillenie hasn’t won yet. That is the one he is aiming to conquer in Beijing at the end of August. 11 days later Lavillenie will compete in the King Baudouinstadium in Brussels where he targets a 6m-jump.

The 100m Hurdles offers local heroes Eline Berings and Anne Zagré an excellent opportunity to bring out their best in a world class field. Olympic Champion Sally Pearson has already confirmed her presence in Brussels. The Australian already competed at 5 occasions in Brussels but she is still is still chasing her first victory. It looks as if the friendly Australian meets her doom when she competes on Belgian ground. That is why Sally Pearson definitely is coming to Brussels for redemption.
