Amusan won with an impressive time of 12.52s after beating Sarah Lavin who clocked a personal best of 12.73s for 2nd and Pia Skrzyszowska in 12.78s in 3rd place.

She finished in second position in the 100 metres hurdles event at the Lausanne Diamond League on Friday after Puerto Rico’s Jasmine Camacho-Quinn won the race with a time of 12.40s.
