Reigning world champion Nia Ali will start the defense of her title in the first heat here today and the American will be tested immediately, having drawn in the same heat as Jamaica’s Britany Anderson, who is a candidate to win a medal. Canada’s Michelle Harrison will also race from this first-round heat.

Alaysha Johnson to continue excellent 2022 form?
Meanwhile, talented American Alaysha Johnson, who is having a wonderful breakout 2022 season, enters the start of the women’s 100m hurdles first round as the second-quickest in the world this year with a 12.35 PB and the American will hope to extend her form through this weekend as she looks to deny her more preferred rivals.
