Schulte clocked a personal best 10.56sec to finish 0.01 seconds ahead of runner-up Henrik Larsson of Sweden and a further 0.05 seconds clear of Finland’s Samuel Purola, who rounded out the podium at the Tbilisi Athletics Arena.

Kwadwo posted a winning time of 11.76 to hold off nearest challenger Gina Akpe-Moses of Ireland, second in 11.80, and  Poland’s Klaudia Adamek, the bronze medallist in 11.82.

The first final of the day saw Greece’s Odisséfs Mouzenídis triumph in the boys' shot put with a season’s best 21.51 metres.

The 17-year-old finished ahead of Belarus’ Dzmitriy Karpuk and Finland’s Eero Ahola, both of whom managed 21.24m.

Karpuk’s second-best throw of 21.21m ultimately gave him silver, bettering that of Ahola by a centimetre.

There was further Greek success in the boys’ long jump as Panayiótis Mantzouroyiánnis leapt 7.60m to take gold.

France’s Enzo Hodebar and Romania’s Bogdan Ioan Sitoianu registered season’s bests of 7.54m and 7.31m respectively, but they were only enough for the silver and bronze medals.

In the boys' hammer throw, Ukraine’s Myhaylo Havrylyuk posted a personal best 82.26m to claim victory with Great Britain’s Jake Norris second on 79.20m and Sweden’s Ragnar Carlsson on 75.71m.

There were also wins today for Moldova’s Alexandra Emelianov in the girls' discus throw and Switzerland’s Delia Sclabas in the girls' 3,000m.

Emelianov’s throw of 58.09m was sufficient to top a podium that also featured Germany’s Amelie Döbler, the silver medallist with 50.14m, and Finland’s Helena Leveelahti, the bronze medallist with 49.34m. 

Norway’s Stine Wangberg came closest to matching Sclabas’ personal best time of 9min 23.44sec, clocking 9:26.55 to finish 1.6 seconds ahead of third-placed Lucy Pygott of Britain.

Action in Georgia’s capital is due to continue tomorrow.
