I’m Thrilled To Put This Behind Me, Tobi Amusan Reacts To Being Cleared By Panel


The world women’s 100m hurdles champion, Nigeria’s Tobi Amusan, has recently reacted to being cleared by the Athletics Integrity Unit for whereabouts failures.

In other words, Amusan, 26, would now be able to compete at the 2023 World Athletics Championship, which will begin on Saturday in Budapest, Hungary.

Tobi on Thursday on her Facebook expressed her excitement and wrote: “This morning, I found out that the independent tribunal that heard my case has ruled that I did not violate the whereabouts rules and as a result I will not be sanctioned and none of my results will be precluded.

” I generally have been and consistently will be an ally of clean sport.

“To my five fingers, God is the greatest and I genuinely appreciate y’all for the support.”

“I am thrilled to put this behind me, and I look forward to defending my title at next week’s World Championships.

Recall that the 26-year-old athlete, in July, was suspended for missing three drug tests within an interval of 12 months and was facing a two-year ban if  sha was found wanting.

Amusan has currently set the world record of 12.12secs in the women’s 100m hurdles at last year’s championship in Oregon.
