Jamaican athlete Danielle Williams upset a strong women’s 100m Hurdles field to claim her first World Championships title with a Personal Best (PB) of 12.57s, as two-time European champion, Sergey Shubenkov showed that he has come of age, defeating the likes of defending champion, David Oliver to claim GOLD in the 110 Hurdles on Day 7 of the 2015 IAAF World Championships in Beijing.

The newly crowned 100m Hurdles champion put up a good show, leading her heat with 12.77s, and replicated the same feat in the semis where she lowered her time to a PB of 12.58s, before her feat in the final. Germany’s Cindy Roleder followed in 2nd with a PB of 12.59s, as Alina Talay clocked a National Record (NR) of 12.66s to claim Bronze. Danielle’s older sister, Shermaine placed 7th with 12.95s.
