Tobi Amusan Wins Third Consecutive Diamond League
Nigerian track queen Tobi Amusan has won the 100m hurdles for the third time consecutively at the Diamond League in Eugene, Oregon, US.
Entertainment Digest reports that Amusan bounced back after she was dethroned as the women’s 100m hurdles world champion by Jamaica’s Danielle Williams at the 19th World Championships in Budapest, Hungary in August.
Recall that the Nigerian athlete came sixth at the World Championship, but she is back at her best in the competition.

But the latest feat comes months after the Nigerian was suspended for doping violations by the Athletics Integrity Unity (AIU).
According to the AIU, she had missed three tests in 12 months. But she was cleared of any violations, just three days before the 2023 World Athletics Championships.
On the heels of the feat, Amusan makes history as the second woman in Diamond League history after Dawn Nelson-Harper to win a hat-trick of 100m hurdles titles.
