The feat on Tuesday was close to her Silesia Diamond League Meeting Record of 12.34s, to finish ahead of US champion Nia Ali in 12.41s and her compatriot Alaysha Johnson in 12.51s.

Amusan expectedly picked one of the slots available for the Athletics World Championship during the trials at the Samuel Ogbemudia stadium in Benin City two weeks ago.
