Believe In God
“I remember in 2021 I ran here and came fourth. The moment I heard the World Championships was going to be staged here (Tokyo), I had PTSD. But I had to snap out of it and tell myself I wasn’t leaving here without the gold medal; but I’ll take the silver,” Amusan told Making of Champions.
“It’s been God, the journey has been extremely rough. I’ve taken more L’s than wins and I’m just thankful that I have a great support system: my coach, my family, my mentors, my loved ones, my fans. This is for everyone who has supported me through it all.”
