Tobi Amusan Finishes 4th, Fails To Win Medal In 100m Hurdles

Tobi Amusan Finishes 4th, Fails To Win Medal In 100m Hurdles By Our Reporter Tobi Amusan failed to win Nigeria's first medal at the ongoing Tokyo 2020 Olympics games after finishing fourth in the women's 100 meters hurdle event. Amusan, who did not only have a slow start but ran slowest out of her block, could only pick up the pace 50m into the race as she clocked a time of 12.60s to place 4th. The favourite Jasmine Camacho-Quinn from Puerto Rico blew away the rest to convincingly win Gold in women's 100m hurdles clocking a time of 12.37s. Kendra Harrison from the United States won the silver medal in 12.52s while Jamaica's Megan Tapper beat Tobi Amusan to the bronze medal with a time of 12.55s. However, Amusan can keep her head high as her 4th placed finish is a giant leap from the semifinal finish she could manage at the Rio Olympics five years ago. -Legit.com
