Tobi Amusan seeks return to winning ways against stacked 100mH field at Shanghai Diamond League
World Record holder Tobi Amusan will be seeking to return to winning ways when she faces a stacked 100mH field at the Shanghai Diamond League on Saturday, May 3rd.
The Nigerian hurdling queen officially kicked off her outdoor season last weekend at the Xiamen Diamond League, where she settled fourth place in 12.74s behind race winner Danielle Williams, second-placed Grace Stark, and third-placed Marione Fourie.

This time, Amusan will face the same field, gunning to upstage the top three finishers and increase her rank on the Diamond League standings.
However, she'll have other top competitors in world 60mH record holder Devynne Charlton, former world champion Nia Ali, Polish star Pia Skrzyszowska, and homegirl Wu Yanni.
A victory for Amusan will surely propel her back into the limelight, which will build her confidence for the rest of the season as she aims to reclaim her world title at the World Championships in Tokyo this summer.
