World champion and world record holder Tobi Amusan proved her class on Sunday in the 2023 Diamond League athletics series in Stockholm, Sweden, winning the 100-meter hurdles in 12.52 seconds despite the wet track conditions.
The Olympics reported Monday that Amusan had Poland’s Pia Skrzyszowska breathing down her neck but pulled away to win handily.
Sarah Lavin of Ireland finished strong, with a personal best of 12.73s, while Skrzyszowska finished third in 12.78s.
“I am excited to be out here competing, and it is great to get the win on the back of Lausanne (silver),” Amusan said.
“The rain stopped, but it was still very cold.” I am not very happy with where I am but I trust in the process even when it is not necessarily processing right.”
The games in Stockholm, Sweden, feature some of the world’s best and brightest track & field athletes.
