Johnson-Thompson reclaimed the heptathlon world title in Budapest.
Defending champion Nafi Thiam may have been out with her own Achilles problem but Johnson-Thompson displayed the grit and courage to prove she can threaten the Belgian again in France.
But, following a slow start in the 100m hurdles and needing three attempts to clear 1.80m in the high jump, she settled. She then launched a personal best of 46.14m in the javelin as Hall dropped to third and gave Johnson-Thompson a 26-point advantage over Vetter.
