Thirteen Olympic champions, including sprint sensations Omar McLeod and Elaine Thompson, are among the galaxy of stars announced on Thursday for the 2017 Shanghai Diamond League.
The May 13 competition, the second stop on the IAAF's global circuit of premier one-day meets, is a major tune-up for the August world championships in London.
The stellar lineup includes four gold medalists from the 2015 worlds in Beijing and nine overall event winners from last year's Diamond Race.
