Summary

edit

Kendra Harrison came into these championships as the favorite based on her outdoor world record, but so far world championship medals have evaded her. She dominated her way through the rounds.

In the final, Christina Manning got the best start along with Devynne Charlton, but Harrison quickly made up ground. By the second hurdle, she had a foot (30 cm) lead, over the two, with Charlton fading from contention after that, while Sharika Nelvis and Isabelle Pedersen were the next back by the third hurdle. Nadine Visser pulled even with Pedersen still 2 feet behind Nelvis. Out front, Harrison had a metre lead over Manning. On the run in, Harrison and Manning retained their positions, while Visser closed quickly to take bronze from Nelvis. Seventh over the last barrier, Cindy Roleder also closed quickly to almost catch Nelvis for fourth. Harrison's winning time of 7.70 was a new Championship record.
