Julien Alfred has once again cemented her status in the women`s 100m. Julien, who has been in good form this season, proved she is the person to beat.
She delivered a stunning performance at the Oslo Diamond League, winning the women’s 100m in a season-best time of 10.89 seconds.

On the other hand, Great Britain’s Dina Asher-Smith claimed third place, also setting a season-best time of 11.08 seconds.

Meanwhile, Ta Lou-Smith, a seasoned competitor with multiple international medals, pushed hard to keep pace but ultimately could not match Alfred’s blistering speed. Her 11.00 seconds, however, marked a strong return to form and demonstrated her continued competitiveness at the highest level.
Dina Asher-Smith, known for her tactical racing and smooth acceleration, rounded out the podium with a solid run, showing she remains a top contender in the sprint events.
The Oslo Diamond League provided a thrilling showcase of world-class sprinting talent. Alfred’s victory adds to her growing reputation as one of the fastest women on the planet, while Ta Lou-Smith and Asher-Smith’s performances confirm their status among the elite.
Will Julien Alfred keep the momentum? That can only be answered based on the Diamond League next meet and also the remaining events of the season.
