Even after a long and busy season, she still managed to trim another three-hundredths of a second off of the World under-20 200m record, when she stormed to a narrow victory at the Wanda Diamond League Finals in Zürich, Switzerland on 9th September - 21.78 is now the new record attached to the name of this speedy miss from Namibia..
Also performing at a higher level than she achieved at the Olympics was young Yaroslava Mahuchikh of Ukraine, who matched high jumps with the winner from Tokyo, Mariya Lasitskene, until the bar reached 2.05 and 2.07 - she had to be satisfied with 2.03, which equaled her season's best and was just 1 cm below her all-time Personal Best. She turns 20 on 19th September.
