The man to open his ears widest to flatterers is he who first flatters himself and is fondest of himself

IF IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO WINS OR LOSES, THEN WHY DO THEY KEEP SCORE?

The Diamond League returned to London for the Anniversary Games at the Olympic Stadium. The UK's David Omoregie triumphed in the 110m hurdles, whilst American Kerron Clement seized victory in the 400m hurdles. The UK dominated in the 100m with CJ Ujah winning in 10.02 seconds, closely followed by James Dasaolu. KAOS favourite Harry Aikines-Aryeetey wasn't far behind them, beating the legendary Kim Collins.

As it happened. Here's the full results. Watch now:

IF IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO WINS OR LOSES, THEN WHY DO THEY KEEP SCORE?

The 2017 Great City Games took place yesterday in Manchester, a city still recovering from last week's horror. What better antidote to terror than the nobility and purity of athletics? Here's four key races:

Harry Aikines-Aryeetey

LHIS IS 25-year-old Team GB sprinter Harry Aikines-Aryeetey.

Here at kaos, we like to think of him as a living God, or if that's a bit OTT for you, settle for The Most Beautiful Man On The Planet. This London-born superhero (his parents are Ghanaian), "discovered his talent for running fast when a dog chased him in the local park". He describes himself on Twitter as "a bubbly guy who happens to run fairly fast in a straight line".

Harry only bothers with the gym once or twice a week, he says (slacker), and is shocked at the suggestion he could bench press a person (let me be the first to volunteer).

Sadly, we've only managed to track down round 120 pictures of Harry, but there's a bunch of videos after the jump to make up for it.

Enjoy.
