The defending indoor world champion Grant Holloway shattered his own world record of 7.29s as he set a new WR in the 60m hurdles, running the sprint distance in just 7.27s in round one of the USATF Indoor Championships 2024.

Holloway's world record performance in the preliminaries of the championships ensured him a place at the World Athletics Indoor Championships 2024. Having advanced to the World Indoors already, he opted to skip the finals of the event.

In the absence of Holloway, Trey Cunningham (7.39) took home the USA indoor 60m hurdles title in the finals. Cameron Murray and Daniel Roberts finished second (7.45) and third (7.48).

Despite finishing third in the finals, Roberts won’t be a part of the World Indoors as Cunningham and Murray are the ones who will be joining the three-time World champion, Holloway.
