Nigeria’s Tobi Amusan has won the gold medal in the women’s 100m hurdles at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, United Kingdom.

“The goal is always just to execute well and get the win. So the world record is a bonus. I knew I had it in me but I could not believe it when I saw it on the screen after the semis.

“Before the final, I just tried to stay calm and to do my best. I took a deep breath knowing that I have some goals to accomplish and it worked pretty well. I knew it was very fast but not this fast,” Amusan said after her final victory. Coming up behind here were Bahamas’s Devynne Charlton who took silver and England’s Cindy Sember who took bronze with both some notable distance behind the eventual winner.Team Nigeria are now just one behind the gold medal record set by the 1994 team at the Commonwealth Games and six behind the total medals record .

With seven competitions still holding potential for gold for the team on the final day and World Athletics Championship silver medallist Ese Brume still in competition later today, Nigeria can and will hope for more.All rights reserved.
