Dina Asher-Smith has set a new British record of 7.04 seconds as she won the women’s 60m at the World Indoor Tour in Karlsruhe, Germany.

Asher-Smith clocked a time of 7.04 seconds to beat Poland’s Ewa Swoboda, who finished in 7.09secs.

Sprinter Mujinga Kambundji of Switzerland was third with a time of 7.11secs at the Karlsruhe event.

The Briton’s time surpassed Asha Philip’s previous mark of 7.06secs which was set when winning the European title in 2017.

It marks a strong start to 2023 for Asher-Smith, who endured a stop-start season in 2022 after injury forced her to withdraw from the Commonwealth Games.
