T&T's Keshorn Wal­cott heads back in­to ac­tion to­mor­row when he chal­lenges eight wor­thy op­po­nents in the sev­enth meet­ing of the IAAF Di­a­mond League in Oslo, Nor­way.

On Sat­ur­day, Wal­cott's toss of 83.75 me­tres won him gold at the Meet­ing Ma­ia Cidade de De­sporto, in Por­tu­gal. At that same meet, an­oth­er lo­cal field ath­lete Shakeil Wait­he com­pet­ed and he im­pressed tak­ing sil­ver with an ef­fort of 71.48m.

The reign­ing Olympic men's javelin cham­pi­on will look to be at his best and try to im­prove on his pre­vi­ous show­ing the pre­mier meet­ing when his at­tempt of 74.99m at the Pre­fontaine Clas­sic in Ore­gon, USA, placed him sev­enth, some two weeks ago.

Wal­cott, of To­co, who set a Caribbean record of 90.16m when win­ning at the IAAF Di­a­mond League meet­ing in Lau­sanne last year, will line up against two oth­er glob­al javelin cham­pi­ons in Oslo in­clud­ing Kenya's Julius Yego, 27, and Egypt's Ihab Ab­del­rah­man.

The Kenyan set an African record of 92.72m to win gold at the IAAF World Cham­pi­onships Bei­jing last year, pro­duc­ing the far­thest throw in the world since 2001. Ear­li­er in the year, he set an IAAF Di­a­mond League record of 91.39m when win­ning in Birm­ing­ham.

Ab­del­rah­man took the sil­ver medal in Bei­jing last year. Yego is the on­ly African man ever to have thrown far­ther than Ab­del­rah­man.

Ger­many's Thomas Rohler and Jo­hannes Vet­ter are still seek­ing their first ma­jor in­ter­na­tion­al medals, though 2014 Di­a­mond Race win­ner Rohler was just 23 cen­time­tres away in Bei­jing last year. Vet­ter, who was sev­enth at last year's World Cham­pi­onships, has the ear­ly world lead at 82.96m. The oth­er Ger­man in the con­test is An­dreas Hof­mann.

The oth­er com­peti­tors are Ry­ohei Arai of Japan, Czech Re­pub­lic's Jakub Vadle­jch and Aus­tralian Hamish Pea­cock.

Al­so on the week­end T&T elite ath­letes in­clud­ing Richard Thomp­son, Je­hue Gor­don and Kyle Greaux. Thomp­son fol­lowed Amer­i­can Justin Gatlin to the line in the "Mano a Mano" chal­lenge at the Quin­ta da Boav­ista in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on Sun­day. Gatlin won the ex­hi­bi­tion 100m dash in a time of 10.19 with Thomp­son tak­ing sil­ver in 10.29.

At the Gala dei Castel­li in Bellinzona, Switzer­land, Gor­don clocked 50.56 to place fourth in the men's 400m hur­dles while Greaux ran a per­son­al best of 10.36 to place sec­ond in the In­ter­na­tion­al le de­fi Ama­zo­ni­am in French Guiana.
