OSTRAVA, CZECH REPUBLIC - Norway's Karsten Warholm came up just short again in his latest bid to claim Kevin Young's 28-year old world record in the 400 metres hurdles as a light breeze and late stutter blew him off course at the Ostrava Golden Spike meeting on Tuesday .

The meet organisers brought Warholm's event forward by 90 minutes due to concerns over increasing wind but it was still a touch breezy, a condition that affected his performance. One woman who never has to worry about a lack of concentration is Britain's Laura Muir, who led the women's 800m from 300m out to finish well clear in 1:58.84.
