Nigerian sprint icon, Tobi Amusan has failed to make it to the final of the Women’s 100m hurdles at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
This came as she finished in third position clocking a time of 12.55s which was also not enough to see her qualify as one of the best losers.
The disappointing performance which saw Tobi Amusan finish a lowly ninth overall was a huge blow for the nation, which had pinned its hopes on her exceptional performance.
Meanwhile, the women’s 110m hurdles semi-finals were a dramatic spectacle, with only 0.01 seconds separating the top two finishers.
American Kendra Johnson clinched victory with a time of 12.34 seconds while defending Olympic champion Jasmine Camacho-Quinn of Puerto Rico finished just behind in 12.35 seconds.
