Bouncing back to form at the right time, Jasmine Camacho-Quinn won the FBK Games in Hangelo with her best performance of the season.

Olympic champion Jasmine Camacho-Quinn is peaking at the right time ahead of the Paris 2024 Games, following a convincing Season's Best (SB) performance at the FBK Hangelo Games in the Netherlands.

The Puerto Rican track star blazed to an astonishing 12.39s (+1.6) to win the women's 100mH event, which currently places her in the top 10 on the world list before the Olympics.

Homegirl Nadine Visser clocked an impressive National Record of 12.46s to finish second. Marione Fourie was also in record-breaking form as she sped to the fastest time in South African history in 12.49s for third.

Despite Camacho-Quinn having to work hard for the win, her return to form is a stern warning to her rivals, especially Tobi Amusan and Danielle Williams that she will be ready to defend her Olympic title in Paris.

With the women's 100mH already tipped to be one of the hallmark events at the Olympics, whoever wins the gold medal will surely be regarded as one of the all-time greats in hurdling history.
