#TuksAthletics: Steenkamp wins 100m-hurdles in France

Posted on June 16, 2017

The South African 100m-hurdles champion, Rikenette Steenkamp, had a good start to her international campaign last night when she sprinted to victory at the Herrouville Saint-Clair Meeting in France. 
 
The Tuks-athlete was very consistent winning both her heat and final in a time of 13.13s. The windy conditions made things difficult for the athletes. Karolina Koleczek (Poland) was second in 13.28s and Britain’s Yasmin Miller third in 13.44s.
 
Hassan Taftian (Iran) won the 100m in 10.25s. Anaso Jobodwana was second in 10.28s, Thando Roto (Tuks) third in 10.29s and Emile Erasmus (Tuks) fourth in 10.37s.
