The women's 100 metres hurdles at the 2023 World Athletics Championships was held at the National Athletics Centre in Budapest from 22 to 24 August 2023.[1]
Summary
In the first round, former world record holder Kendra Harrison ran 12.24, equalling her own #4 performance in history, leaving her with three of the top 5 races ever. Even her 12.33 in the semi-finals had only been beaten by ten women ever, but four of them made the finals along with her: Tobi Amusan, the defending champion who set the world record in the semi-final round at the previous championships; Jasmine Camacho-Quinn, Olympic Champion; Nia Ali, 2019 champion; and Danielle Williams, the 2015 champion. From that elite field, Devynne Charlton was the first one over the first hurdle. Charlton maintained that advantage as Camacho-Quinn and Harrison were trying to reel her in while Ali was hitting hurdles. Almost unnoticed in lane 2, Williams was getting up a head of steam, pulling even with Charlton by the fifth hurdle and taking a clear lead by the seventh. By the eighth, Harrison had gotten by Charlton and had separated to second. At the ninth, Camacho-Quinn got past Charlton and moving the fastest. Camacho-Quinn and Harrison cleared the last hurdle together, still marginally behind Williams. Camacho-Quinn closed quickly to make a photo finish with Williams, leaving Harrison with bronze. The photo gave it to Williams.
