Oluwatobiloba Amusan will begin her World 100m hurdles title defence at exactly 6:12 pm on Tuesday at the National Athletics Centre in Budapest, Hungary.
The 26-year-old was cleared Thursday last week to compete after the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) freed her from a Whereabouts Failures charge.
Amusan has been drawn to run from lane four, just outside Olympics bronze medal winner, Megan Tapper of Jamaica in the fifth and final heat of the first round.
The reigning Nigeria, African, Commonwealth and Diamond League champion will be seeking to be one of the four automatic qualifiers for the semifinals.
The world record holder will be looking to successfully defend her title to complete a successful defence of all five titles she has won at national, continental and world levels.
At this stage last year, Amusan started her campaign to immortality with a 12.40 African record before smashing the 12.20 world record set by Kendra Harrison in 2016 with an incredible 12.12 run.
The petit sprint hurdler completed her astonishing run with a historic gold medal in the final, running a wind-aided 12.06 to become the first Nigerian world outdoor champion
