Amusan finishes fourth at Xiamen Diamond League
Team Nigeria Tobi Amusan opened her 2025 season ina time of 12.74 seconds, finishing fourth in a highly competitive 100m hurdles event at the Xiamen Diamond League on Saturday.
The race marked Amusan’s first appearance since her disappointing performance at the 2024 Paris Olympics, where she failed to reach the final despite being one of the favourites to medal.
Jamaica’s Danielle Williams, the 2023 World Championships gold medalist, claimed victory in 12.53 seconds, ahead of USA’s Grace Stark (12.58s) and South Africa’s Marione Fourie (12.62s).
Amusan will aim to build momentum as the season progresses. Her next appearance is scheduled for the 2025 World Athletics Relays, which will take place at the Guangdong Olympic Stadium in Guangzhou, China, on May 10–11, 2025.
