Nigerian athlete Tobi Amusan yet again showed why she remains a major contender in the women’s 100m Hurdles, finishing 2nd at the Prefontaine Classic in a time of 12.38s.
Amusan came out with a new look as she shaved all her hair as she seems focused for yet another thrilling competition.
Jamaica’s Ackera Nugent won the race in 12.32s, while Kendra Harrison came in 3rd 12.50s.
