The 2023 Prefontaine Classic was the 48th edition of the annual outdoor track and field meeting in Eugene, Oregon, United States. Held on 16-17 September at Hayward Field, it served as the finals of 2023 Diamond League – the highest-level international track and field circuit. It was the first time that the Diamond League finals were held in the United States.

Highlights The first day of competition was highlighted by Jakob Ingebrigtsen running 3:43.73 in the Bowerman Milethe fastest mile in 24 yearsfollowed by Yared Nuguse in 3:43.97. In the women's steeplechase, Winfred Yavi ran the #2 time in history to win.

Grant Fisher broke his own American record in the 3,000 Meters, finishing in 3rd place with a time of 7:25.47.

On the final day, Ingebrigtsen won his second 2023 Diamond League title in the 3000 metres while running the third-fastest time in history. Second-place finisher Yomif Kejelcha, who was beat by just 0.01 seconds, was upset with the Diamond League hosting the finals over 3000 m instead of the standard 5000 metres distance, saying that benefitted Ingebrigtsen. Gudaf Tsegay also broke the 5000 metres world record by five seconds, running 14:00.21. The record was noted to be impressive because it occurred in sunny sunny weather with wind.

Results While Diamond League points were used to gain entry into the finals, they were not used to determine Diamond League champions. Regardless of points accumulated throughout the season, winners of the 2023 Prefontaine Classic were crowned 2023 Diamond League champions in their respective events, with the exception of Athing Mu who was a National Wildcard and thus ineligible for the Diamond League trophy.
