Tobi Amusan loses race in Lausanne Diamond League, finishes second
Tobi Amusan, a sprinter from Nigeria and this year's world champion, came in second to Jasmine Camacho-Quinn of Puerto Rico at the present Diamond League Meet after breaking through at the World Athletics Championship in Oregon, United States, and setting a new world record.

Amusan had planned to continue her exceptional performance but encountered a difficult obstacle when she lost the gold medal to 2020 Tokyo Olympics gold champion. She was still basking in the thrill of the record Commonwealth Games gold she won in Birmingham and appeared smarter.

With a new Meeting Record time of 12.34 seconds (-0.9), Camacho-Quinn defeated Tobi Amusan to win the women's 100-meter hurdles in the Diamond League.

Amusan came in second place in 12.45 seconds and qualified for Zurich, while Tia Jones of the US raced a new personal best to take third place in 12.47 seconds.

The Diamond League is an annual collection of the top 14 invitational athletics meetings for track and field competitions.

The World Athletics one-day meeting series is at the top of the standings.
