Unstoppable Ta Lou storms to another impressive win, helps national team to relay NR in Lausanne

Marie Josée Ta Lou is in an unstoppable form and doesn't look to get beaten anytime soon, after recording two impressive wins at the Lausanne Diamond League.

The Ivorian track legend clocked a brilliant 10.88s (-0.8) to win the women's 100m event, far ahead of second-placed Daryll Neita in 11.07s, while Gina Lückenkemper finished third with a time of 11.17s.

Ta Lou's victory is her ninth consecutive one this year and her third in the Diamond League this season. She is also the world leader with 10.75s clocked at Oslo Diamond League, making her one of the most dominant 100m runners in the women's circuit this year.

The World and Olympic medallist was back moments after, running a jaw-dropping second leg to help her country's 4x100m relay team to a fantastic National Record of 42.23s.

Their quartet of legendary Mureille Ahoure-Demps, Jessika Gbai, and Maboundou Kone won the race, automatically qualifying them for the World Championships in Budapest.

Ta Lou remains a top favourite for the 100m world title, which if attained successfully will be the first time in African history.
