Masai Russell took a page out of Noah Lyles’ book on Saturday at the Paris Olympics and won the women’s 100-meter hurdles by a torso.

Russell defeated Cyrena Samba-Mayela by one one-hundredth of a second to get back on the podium Russell crossed the line at 12.33 and Samba-Mayela finished with a 12.34.

Puerto Rico’s Jasmine Camacho-Quinn won bronze.

Russell’s finish appeared to be similar to that of Lyles’ win in the 100-meter sprint earlier this week. Lyles narrowly defeated Jamaican Kishane Thompson by five thousandths of a second.

The field for the race was stacked as she defeated the defending Olympic champion in Camacho-Quinn and Jamaica’s Danielle Williams, who won the world championships last year in Budapest.

“I guess I don’t really think about (having the top time) because I know there’s still more in the tank,” Russell told The Associated Press before the race. “I feel like once you start thinking that you have to do something more than what you’ve already done, that’s when bad things can (happen). … If it’s meant for me to win the gold, it’s going to happen.”

It’s Russell’s first Olympic medal – let alone gold.
