Nigeria's Queen of the Track, Tobi Amusan, Smashes the 100m Hurdles Meet Record at the Herculis EBS Meeting, Sending a Powerful Warning to Rivals.
Nigerian sprint hurdles superstar Tobi Amusan has once again etched her name into the history books, delivering a breathtaking performance to smash the 100m hurdles record at the prestigious Herculis EBS Meeting in Monaco. Competing against a world-class field, Amusan blazed down the track in a stunning 12.21 seconds, erasing the previous meet record and leaving her competitors trailing in her wake. The performance marks her fastest time this season and sends a clear message of her formidable form.
From the moment the starting gun fired, Amusan's flawless technique was on full display. She exploded out of the blocks with her trademark powerful start and cleared each hurdle with clean, efficient precision. By the fifth barrier, she had already established a clear lead, which she extended all the way to the finish line, crossing it with a triumphant roar that echoed through the Stade Louis II. The run was not only a new meet record but also the second-fastest time ever run in the history of the women's 100m hurdles, just shy of her own world record.
In a post-race interview, a visibly elated Amusan credited her relentless work ethic and the guidance of her coaching team for the spectacular result. "I felt fast tonight, I felt powerful. We came here with a plan to execute a clean race, and we did just that," she explained. "Monaco always has an amazing atmosphere, and it pushes you to be your best. This is a huge confidence booster, but the job isn't finished. We are building towards the big one, the World Championships."
With the World Athletics Championships just around the corner, Amusan’s record-breaking run in Monaco solidifies her status as the overwhelming favourite to defend her world title. Her performance has silenced any doubts about her form this season and has set the stage for what could be another historic year for Nigeria’s queen of the track. The athletics world now watches and waits to see if anyone can rise to challenge the untouchable Tobi Amusan.
