Zoyols News

Tobi Amusan delivered an impressive performance at the Diamond League meeting after recording a season’s best time of 12.41 seconds to finish third in the women’s 100m hurdles event.

The Nigerian star showed strong improvement during the race, securing the bronze medal behind two outstanding performances from her rivals.

American hurdler Masai Russell dominated the event with a remarkable time of 12.25 seconds, setting a new meet record as well as the fastest time recorded globally this season.

Second place went to Devynne Charlton of the Bahamas, who crossed the line in 12.38 seconds to set a new national record.

For Amusan, the outing marked another positive step in her preparations for the major athletics championships later in the year. Her latest performance also confirmed steady progress as she continues working towards returning to top form.

Widely regarded as one of Nigeria’s finest track athletes, the Commonwealth Games champion has been rebuilding momentum after a difficult period in her career.

Her 12.41 seconds finish now stands as her fastest performance of the 2026 season so far and has further strengthened confidence ahead of the remaining events on the outdoor athletics calendar.
