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).
