Amusan is the favourite to win this race as the World Record (WR) holder with 12.12s. However, with the challenge posed by the stacked lineup, an upset may occur at the end of the day.

Consequently, the Nigerian will compete in the 100m flat facing former World Indoor champion Murielle Ahoure-Demps.

Amusan has a Personal Best (PB) of 11.14s recorded last year, so kicking off by running close or lowering this time will be a great start to the season in her build-up to successfully defending her World title in Budapest.
Also listed in the 100m list is European champion Gina Luckenkemper, American trio of Celera Barnes, Brittany Brown, and Kortnei Johnson, China's Liang Xiaojing, Jamaica's Kiara Grant, and Charlton returning as well after competing in the 100mH.
