Amusan wins historic 2023 Diamond League Trophy

Nigeria’s Queen of the track, Tobi Amusan, won the 2023 Diamond League trophy in the Women’s 100m Hurdles with a time of 12.33 seconds, Sportivationng.com reports.

Punch reports that she made this feat on Sunday at the Diamond League Prefontaine Classic at Hayward Field.

This is her third consecutive win at the Diamond League in the same category.

Amusan started off strong and maintained her lead, clearing the final hurdles with determination and finishing with an impressive season-best time of 12.33 seconds.

Jasmine Camacho-Quinn from Puerto Rico gave a strong chase, coming in second with a time of 12.38, while Keni Harrison from the United States took third place with a time of 12.44.

The world champion, Danielle Williams from Jamaica, finished fourth with a time of 12.47.

After a disappointing performance in Budapest, Amusan bounces back in style, making history as only the second woman in Diamond League history to win three consecutive 100m hurdles titles.

Amusan goes into history as the second woman in Diamond League history after Dawn Nelson-Harper to win a hat-trick of 100m hurdles titles.
