Organisers of the Hanzekovic Memorial have confirmed that Olympic gold medallists Allyson Felix, Sandra Perkovic and Sara Kolak will compete at the IAAF World Challenge meeting in Zagreb on 3 September.

Felix returned to action last month following the birth of her first child late last year.

The nine-time Olympic gold medallist, who holds the Hanzekovic Memorial 200m meeting record, will contest the 400m at this year’s edition.

Felix ran at Zagreb in 2012 and she still holds the 200m meeting record with 22.35.

All three medallists from the IAAF World Championships London 2017 will be reunited in Zagreb as Felix, the bronze medallist on that occasion will line up against world champion Phyllis Francis and world silver medallist Salwa Eid Naser.
