Primed from the Commonwealth Games gold in Birmingham early this month, Amusan hoped to continue her superlative performance but met a resistant hurdle as she lost the gold medal to 2020 Tokyo Olympics winner, Jasmine Camacho-Quinn.
Camacho-Quinn got one over Amusan, winning the women’s 100m Hurdles at the Diamond League in a new Meeting Record of 12.34s (-0.9).
Amusan placed second in 12.45s, qualifying for Zurich, while Tia Jones ran a new Personal Best of 12.47s to finish third.
The Diamond League is a yearly series of elite track and field athletic competitions comprising 14 of the best invitational athletics meetings. The series sits in the top tier of the World Athletics one-day meeting competitions.
