Tobi Amusan has set an African women’s indoor record in 60-meter hurdles after she clocked 7.77 seconds at the 2024 Astana Indoor Meet, Kazakhstan.
The 26-year-old blitzed across the indoor circuit on February 4, 2024 to retire the 7.82-second record set by Gloria Alozie in Madrid, Spain, in 1999.
Amusan finished first in the event’s final ahead of Nia Ali of the USA and Ireland’s Sarah Lavin, who finished second and third, respectively.
