 Lyne ran out of steam in the closing stages |
Great Britain's Becky Lyne could only manage fifth place in the 800m at the World Athletics Final. The European bronze medallist made a promising start and was at the front of the field at the bell but was overtaken on the back straight.
Cuba's world champion Zulia Calatayud retained her title and lowered her meeting record to one minute 59.02secs.
She finished ahead of Kenya's Janeth Jepkosgei in Stuttgart, with Hasna Benhasi from Morocco taking third.
"I was up for it, but I didn't quite have it in my legs," said Lyne, who will represent Europe at the IAAF World Cup Final in Athens next weekend.
Jo Pavey finished seventh in the 3,000m and admitted she should not have competed.
She is preparing for her half-marathon debut in the Great North Run on 1 October, and said: "Normally I would ease down a few days before a race but I need to get in the mileage."
The Commonwealth 5,000m silver medallist briefly hit the front in the closing stages but was caught by the chasing pack and finished in 8:41.56.
 Pavey has the GNR half-marathon on her mind |
"I came here with five 90-minute hard training sessions under my belt and I felt I could just use this as another session," said Pavey.
"I'm a bit disappointed with the result, although it was always a case of giving it a go."
Ethiopian Meseret Defar produced a quick final lap to win in 8:34.22, 0.52secs in front of compatriot Tirunesh Dibaba.
Elsewhere, America's Tyson Gay matched Frankie Fredericks' mark as the third-fastest sprinter of all time in the 200m, winning in 19.68 seconds.
Compatriot Wallace Spearmon ran a personal best 19.88 in second, while Jamaica's Usain Bolt took third in 20.10
Ethiopia's Kenenisa Bekele cruised to victory in a slow 5,000m race.
He took the lead one lap from the finish and kicked with 250m to go, finishing in 13:48.62, just under a second ahead of Kenya's Edwin Cheruiyot Soi.
In the 100m, Jamaica's Sherone Simpson maintained her near-perfect season by winning in 10.89. Torri Edwards was second and Allyson Felix third.
Russia's Yelena Isinbayeva won the pole vault but could not even get close to her world record of 5.01m, clearing 4.75 but failing at 4.85.
Tatyana Lebedeva became the only double-winner of the two-day event, adding the triple jump to her long jump title from Saturday.
She won with a mediocre 14.82m, but it was still good enough to beat Chrisopiyi Devetsi by 25cm.
