World champion Tobi Amusan recorded another impressive time to finish behind Olympic champion Jasmine Camacho-Quinn at Lausanne Diamond League.

With each race, Tobi Amusan gets faster as she tied her fastest time this season, clocking an impressive 12.47s to finish second at the Lausanne Diamond League.

Amusan was outrun by Jasmine Camacho-Quinn, who ran 12.40s for victory, while Tia Jones finished third in 12.51s.

It's Camacho-Quinn's second consecutive victory over the world champion after a convincing win of 12.42s over Jones and Amusan at the Golden Spikes in Ostrava, confirming her form and supremacy in the event this year.

Though the Nigerian may not be getting the wins now, however her progress in lowering her times is an indication of getting better and working toward a successful world title defense in Budapest and her Diamond League title.
