Heartbreak as Tobi Amusan misses 100m hurdles final
Tobi Amusan, the world record holder in the 100m hurdles, failed to advance to the final of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. Despite a strong performance earlier in the heats with a time of 12.49 seconds, she finished third in her semifinal with a time of 12.55 seconds, which was not enough to secure a place in the final or as one of the fastest losers. This outcome is a disappointment for Nigerian fans, who had high hopes for Amusan to repeat her previous successes, including her world record-setting performances and gold medal at the 2022 World Championships.
