Tobi Amusan, the 100-meter hurdles world record holder, will defend her Wanda Diamond League gold in Xiamen, China, on April 20.

The 26-year-old will compete against Olympic champion Jasmine Camacho-Quinn, world champion Danielle Williams, and world indoor champion Devynne Charlton in the race.

In 2023, Amusan won the Wanda Diamond League for the third time in a row.

The Ogun-State-born athlete will also be aiming to win it for the fourth successive time after she became the second woman in Diamond League history to achieve a hat-trick of 100m hurdles titles in 2023.

She holds the world record in the 100m hurdles with 12.12s.

Amusan achieved the feat in Oregon, United States of America in 2021.
