Ruth Usoro set to face world's leading jumpers at Bermuda Games

Nigeria's second-best jumper in the women's long jump will face some of the world's leading jumpers at the Bermuda Games this weekend.

Usoro is in a stacked start list that includes Tara Davis-Woodhall with a Season's Best (SB) mark of 7.07m and Quanesha Burks with 6.95m.

Others are Tiffany Flynn with a Personal Best (PB) of 6.80m, Monae Nichols with 6.97m, and Kendell Williams with 7.00m.

Usoro has been in fantastic form this season, winning the Miramar Invitational in a brilliant windy distance of 6.82m (2.5m/s)

In the indoor season, she soared to a World Championships distance of 6.87m, making her the second-best jumper in African indoor history.

With her present form this season, the former college standout jumper can spring an upset against the big guns in Bermuda.
