Paris Olympic 2024: Tobi Amusan fails to reach 100m Hurdles final
World Record holder, Nigeria’s Tobi Amusan failed to reach 100m Hurdles final at the Paris Olympics on Friday.
Amusan came third in the first semi-final, in a time of 12.55 (.548) seconds and had to wait to see the results of the two other semi-finals to see if she would squeezed through, but the third semi-final spoilt her wait as the two athletes who came third and fourth bettered her performance.
Amusan started late and she paid the price for that, a miss out in the final of the 100m Hurdles.
The first semi-final was won by Grace Stark of the United States of America (USA) in a time of 12.39 seconds, while Devynne Charlton of Bahrain came second in a time of 12.50 seconds, while Amusan and Pia Skrzyszowska of Poland came third in a time of 12.55 (.548).
The World Record holder was Nigeria’s only medal hope as Team Nigeria members crashed out in other contests.
With her performance, Nigeria may be without a medal at the Paris Olympics which ends in two days time.
