The women's 100 metres hurdles at the 2024 Summer Olympics was held in four rounds at the Stade de France in Paris, France, between 7 and 10 August 2024. This was the fourteenth time that the women's 100 metres hurdles was contested at the Summer Olympics.

Summary

[edit]

Gold medalist Jasmine Camacho-Quinn was the only one to return from the podium at the previous Olympics. She also was on the most recent two World Championship podiums and #6 in history. The 2022 Gold Medalist Tobi Amusan was entered, having set that record in the semi-final in Eugene. Then she ran faster in the final only to have a second record improvement disallowed due to assisting wind. The 2023 World Champion Danielle Williams came but #2 in history Kendra Harrison, couldn't get out of the US Trials, against a crop of young hurdlers including Masai Russell who ran the World Leading time 12.25, =#4 in history, while winning those trials ahead of Alaysha Johnson and Grace Stark both credited with equalling the #12 time in history, also equalled by Cyréna Samba-Mayela a few weeks earlier.

In the semi-final round, Amusan and Williams couldn't make the final. Only three finishers in the round failed to break 13 seconds.[2] In the final, Devynne Charlton was a bit slow to react to the gun. Russell and Johnson were inches ahead over the first hurdle, which Ackera Nugent hit, knocking her off balance. By the second barrier, Nadine Visser was inches ahead of Russell, but even last place Nugent was within 60cm of the lead. By the third hurdle, six athletes were virtually even, but Johnson clobbered the hurdle with her trail leg taking her out of contention. By the fifth, Visser and Camacho-Quinn were the first to touch down, with Samba-Mayela within inches. Stark and Russell were about even a half metre down. Over the next three hurdles, Russell regained her deficit clearing even with Visser and Camacho-Quinn, now a few inches down on Samba-Mayela. Nugent hit 8 and ran around 9 taking her out of the race. Johnson hit 9 ending her chances. Visser slowed slightly going into 10 while Samba-Mayela, Camacho-Quinn and Russell took it in that order within inches of each other. Russell was faster on the run in, almost throwing her body over the finish line, flailing her arms to keep her balance. Samba-Mayela maintained her edge on Camacho-Quinn. Stark almost caught a slowing Visser for fourth.[3] Three weeks after the Olympics, Nugent beat both Russell and Samba-Mayela in Rome running 12.24, the #4 time in history.[4]

Background

[edit]

The first women's sprint hurdling event was added to the programme at the 1932 Olympics in the form of the 80 metres hurdles. At the 1972 Games the women's distance was extended to the 100 metres hurdles, which is the current international standard.
