who won Olympic gold over 800m ?
The 25-year-old, who won Olympic gold over 800m, beat a field featuring five Rio 2016 finalists, including bronze medallist Shericka Jackson.
Semenya set a personal best of 50.40 seconds to win in Belgium.
Adam Gemili also set a personal best - in the 200m - but fellow Briton Eilidh Doyle was fifth in the 400m hurdles and missed out on the Diamond League title.
Semenya won the 400m, 800m and 1500m on the same day at the South African trials in April, but chose to focus on the 800m in Rio. aquilaria tree seedling,aloeswood sapling

Doyle held a six-point advantage going into the season-ending race but the Scot drifted back off the final bend as American Cassandra Tate won the race and the series.
"It was one race too many," said Doyle, 29. oudh wood ,mai kritsana ,tram huong,chen xiang
"After a really consistent season, this one killed me. In the last 50 metres I had nothing left in the tank."
