The 30-year-old, who had previously triumphed in Beijing in 2015, finished in a timing of 12.43 seconds, just ahead of Olympic champion Jasmine Camacho-Quinn of Puerto Rico (12.44sec), with Kendra Harrison of the United States taking home the bronze (12.46).

At the last obstacle, Harrison, Camacho-Quinn, and Williams—who was running in lane two for outsiders—rose with Williams.
