The Olympic champion, the Wanda Diamond League champion and the world record holder will lock horns in a showstopping women’s 100m hurdles line-up at the next leg of the Wanda Diamond League in Eugene on July 5.
The USA’s Masai Russell, Puerto Rico’s Jasmine Camacho-Quinn and Nigeria’s Tobi Amusan will all be in the blocks at the Prefontaine Classic next month as the Road to the Final continues in one of the sport’s most unpredictable disciplines.
Russell is the reigning Olympic champion after her stunning win at Paris 2024 last August, but is still waiting for her first Diamond League win after a series of near misses last season.
Camacho-Quinn, who won bronze behind the American, is a seasoned campaigner in athletics’ premier one-day series: she has claimed 14 Diamond League wins since 2019 and secured a long-awaited first title in Brussels last year.
Amusan is a three-time Diamond League champion, having held the title from 2021 to 2023, and the current world record holder with 12.12.
Eugene’s Hayward Field is where Amusan set her world record in 2022, and also where she secured her last Diamond League title the following year.
The Nigerian is currently second in the 2025 Diamond League standings, while Camacho-Quinn and Russell are both yet to get points on the board.
With current standings leader Grace Stark having dominated the early season, Eugene is a chance for three of the hurdles’ biggest names to restake their claim to the favourite’s tag ahead of the Wanda Diamond League Final and the World Championships later this year.
