Irish hurdler was rewarded with a time of 12.73 seconds, not far off her Irish record set last year
will not soon forget, the Limerick sprinter nailing fifth in a world-class 100 metres hurdles, before crashing face-first on to the track such was the extent of her effort.
Conditions were ideal in Doha, the third stop on the Diamond League, and with a legal +1.7m/s wind, Ditaji Kambundji from Switzerland powered to victory in 12.49, just off her national record of 12.47. After reaching 800m in a fast 1:53.88, things slowed considerably with Kenya’s Olympic silver medallist Timothy Cheruiyot in front, and he subsequently lost out in the sprint to his team-mate Brian Komen, who took the win in 3:32.43, Cheruiyot second in 3:32.67.
