Monte Carlo - The success of the inaugural year of the Samsung Diamond League has been strongly endorsed by the international TV figures revealed by its broadcasting partner IMG Media.

Compared to TV coverage in 2009, the 14 meetings who this year joined together to form the Samsung Diamond League, the top tier of track and field’s new one-day meeting structure, have seen world audience totals nearly triple in 2010, with the hours of coverage dramatically increasing too.
