Tobi Amusan won the women’s 100m hurdles at the Paris Diamond League on Sunday in 12.28 seconds, equalling her season’s best time.
The Nigerian triumphed over American competitors Grace Stark (second in 12.38s) and Alaysha Johnson (third in 12.39s).
Amusan had a strong finish after reeling in Nadine Visser, who had gained an early lead, before breaking away from the field to earn a comfortable victory.
It was the third time the 28-year-old had clocked 12.28s this season, having recorded the same time at the Xiamen Diamond League and the Rabat Diamond League in May.

The victory was Amusan’s second on the Diamond League circuit this season, following her triumph in Rabat. She also claimed victory at the New Taipei City Athletics Open earlier this month.
The Nigerian began the season after winning a fourth consecutive African title and has continued to build momentum with each outing ahead of the Diamond League final and the Commonwealth Games later this year.
Amusan, who won three consecutive Diamond League titles between 2021 and 2023, will be aiming to reclaim the crown this season.
