Hansle Parchment was in a no-nonsense mood when he took to the track on Saturday at the Xiamen Diamond League.

He chalked up his season’s best to capture the men’s 110m hurdles event in 12.96s.

The 33-year-old Olympic Champion showed character and excellent technique to blaze past his competitors, including reigning three-time World Champion Grant Holloway, in a season’s best 12.96, the joint-second fastest time in the world this year.

Daniel Roberts, who took bronze behind Holloway and Parchment in Budapest last week, was second in 13.03 while Holloway ran 13.12 for third.

Parchment’s winning time was the second fastest of his career and only the second time he’s gone below 13 seconds. His personal best of 12.94 came on July 5 in 2014 in Paris.
