World Record holder Tobi Amusan will return to the track on Tuesday, June 25, as she lines up for the women’s 100m hurdles at the Golden Spike meet in Ostrava, Czech Republic, Bold Sports reports.
The women’s 100mH World Record holder is coming off a sensational performance in Paris, where she clocked 12.24 seconds, her second-fastest time ever in the event. Amusan will now aim to go even faster as she continues her fine form ahead of the 2025 World Athletics Championships in Tokyo, Japan.
The 27-year-old is the standout name on the startlist in Ostrava, with her world record of 12.12s still untouched since she set it at the World Championships in Oregon in 2022.
Amusan’s challengers in Ostrava include Ireland’s Sarah Lavin, who has a personal best of 12.62s, and Slovakia’s Viktória Forster, who has clocked 12.72s in her career.
