It was her third Diamond League win in two years, following victories in Stockholm in 2025 and Rome in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 27-year-old is currently the world number one in the women\u2019s long jump, having won gold at both the Paris 2024 Olympic Games and last year\u2019s World Athletics Championships in Tokyo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Davis-Woodhall\u2019s husband and fellow athlete Hunter Woodhall will also compete in Eugene in the non-Diamond League Para 100m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The couple join a growing list of global superstars confirmed for Eugene, including Melissa Jefferson-Wooden, Gout Gout, Letsile Tebogo, Masai Russell, Keely Hodgkinson and Tobi Amusan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eugene is the ninth leg of the 2026 Wanda Diamond League, which begins in Doha on May 8 and ends at the two-day series final in Brussels on September 4-5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
