2022 Diamond League: Tobi Amusan Reveals Secrets Behind Successful 2022

Nigeria's Rave of the moment in Athletics Tobi Amusan has attributed her record-breaking 2022 to God's faithfulness after another successful time in the race at the 2022 Diamond League.

Amusan successfully defended her Diamond League title on Thursday, setting a new record of 12.29 seconds in Zurich.

She has enjoyed a stellar year breaking records and winning medals.

Amusan started the year defending her African Championships title in Mauritius before breaking her African record in Paris of 12.42 seconds.

She also broke Angela Atede's 1997 Nigerian Championship record of 12.63 seconds.

Amusan admitted that she wanted to prove her doubters wrong.

“God is faithful,” everyone has doubted me.

"I just had to prove to myself that I have got it,” said Amusan, who also won the African title this year.

“I am just so thankful for all of this season. I am full of emotions. Now, vacation, rest, and then back to practice.”

“No pressures, It was more of proving to myself that I broke the world record and I can do it over and over.

It is not just a one-time thing, even though after the world championships, it took a toll on me to get back to my rhythm but with enough rest, I was able to bounce back, and I am thankful.”

“I was scared to the teeth getting on the line, but I had to just keep my calm.

"I am just thankful to have come out here (Zurich) and got the win."

Amusan won the World Continental Tour Gold Medal.

She also became World Champion and World Record Holder.

The 25-year-old retained the Commonwealth Games title and set a new record at the Games in Birmingham.
