The Gugl-Meeting is the largest one-day athletics meeting in Austria and organised every year in the City of Linz. Founded in 1988 the Gugl-Meeting was IAAF Grand Prix meeting from 1994 onwards and has changed to EAA Premium Status in 2006. Many big athletic stars have started at the Gugl-Meeting: Carl Lewis, Colin Jackson, Allen Johnson, Marion Jones, Iván Pedroso, Maria de Lurdes Mutola, Javier Sotomayor and many more. The Linz track is famous for fast 100 m sprints and excellent long jumps in the past.
On 20 August 2006, Israeli newspaper Ynet revealed that the competition does not accept European Pole vaulting champion, Aleksandr Averbukh, due to his Israeli nationality.[1]
