Nigeria’s Ese Brume placed second at the women’s long jump event of the Gyulai István Memorial in Hungary on Tuesday.

The 27-year-old leaped a distance of 6.69m in the second round to place second behind Slovenia’s Milica Gardaševic who improved her former best of 6.71m – achieved in the second round – with a jump of 6.80m in the last round to win.

Brume will be hoping to peak ahead of her return to Hungary for the World Championships in Budapest next month, hoping to better her season’s best of 6.88m achieved at the Montreuil International Meeting in May.

The Nigerian won silver medal at the World Championships in Eugene, with a leap of 7.02m last year

Brume is set to feature at the Monaco Diamond League on Friday.
