African 200 metres record holder, Blessing Okagbare will be back on the IAAF Diamond League train on Sunday in Rabat, Morocco.
It will be Okagbare’s fourth consecutive trip to Rabat since the IAAF added the city to the Diamond league circuit in 2016
But the African sprint queen is yet to climb the podium as champion.
The closest she came to winning was in her first appearance in 2016 when she ran 11.11 seconds to place second behind Jamaica’s Elaine Thompson.
The Nigerian will be up against familiar foes as she tries to outrun the Flying Dutchwoman, Dafne Schipers and fellow African, Marie-Josee Ta Lou.
Okagbare holds a personal season’s best of 11.07 seconds to come second behind USA’s 2018 NCAA champion, Aleia Obbs in Shanghai last month.
