Amy Hunt says she is "on the up" and "not afraid of anyone" after finishing second in the 100m at the Diamond League final in Brussels.
The 24-year-old Briton finished in 11.06 seconds, behind Jamaica's Tina Clayton who won in 10.93, just one day after a third-placed finish in the 200m.
Hunt's performance surpassed American Olympic silver medallist Sha'Carri Richardson, who came third in 11.07.
It continues Hunt's fine late season form after winning four gold medals at the European Championships in Birmingham last month.
"I am 24 and on the up and up and up. I am not afraid of the other girls," said Hunt.
"I have so much love and respect for them and they are absolute icons but I love the challenge of going head to head with them.
"It takes me back to younger days racing boys in the school playground."
Hunt is planning to compete in the 100m and 200m again at the inaugural Ultimate Championships event in Budapest, which begins on 11 September.
