Nigerian athlete Tobi Amusan, on Friday, failed to reach the final of the women’s 100m hurdles at the 2024 Olympics in Paris, France.
Amusan came third in the first semi-final of the event.
Amusan posted in a time of 12.55 seconds and had to wait to check the outcomes of the two other semi-finals to see if she would scrape through.

But the third semi-final dented her wait as the two athletes who came third and fourth bettered her performance.
Jamaica’s Ackera Nugent crossed the finish line of the third semi-final in a time of 12.44 seconds to finish in third place while France’s Cyrena Samba-Mayela ran 12.52 seconds to finish fourth in the same race.
Both runners posted faster times and secured the qualification spots, ending Amusan’s chance of a podium finish in her third appearance at the Olympics.
