Career

Early career

Visser competed as a heptathlete at the 2012 World Junior Championships in Barcelona, placing eleventh with 5447 points.[4] In 2013, she placed fourth in the heptathlon at the European Junior Championships in Rieti, scoring 5774 points. In the heptathlon's opening event, the 100 m hurdles, she ran 13.21 s (+1.5 m/s) to break Dafne Schippers' Dutch junior record from 2011.[4][5]

During the 2014 indoor season Visser set Dutch indoor junior records in both the 60 m hurdles and the pentathlon; as of 2015, her pentathlon score of 4268 points ranked her ninth on the world all-time junior list.[4][6] Outdoors, Visser competed in the Götzis Hypo-Meeting for the first time, scoring a personal best 6110 points and placing 14th.[7] At the World Junior Championships in Eugene, Oregon, she took part in both the heptathlon and the 100 m hurdles, winning bronze medals in both events.[8] In the hurdles she broke 13 seconds for the first time, her time of 12.99 s (+1.9) setting a new Dutch junior and under-23 record.[9] Visser qualified for her first senior European Championships that summer, representing the Netherlands in the 100 m hurdles; she ran 13.12 s (-2.0) in the heats and was narrowly eliminated from the semi-finals.[10]

2015

In 2015, Visser became Dutch senior champion for the first time, winning the 60 m hurdles in 8.12 s at the national indoor championships in Apeldoorn; she was selected for the European Indoor Championships in Prague, despite not quite meeting the national federation's qualification standard.[1][4] In Prague she qualified from the heats on time, but fell in her semi-final and was eliminated.[11] Outdoors, Visser improved her national under-23 hurdles record to 12.97 s (+1.4) at the FBK Games in Hengelo on 24 May; the following week, she placed fifth in the heptathlon at the Hypo-Meeting with a personal best 6467 points.[4] Before the European U23 Championships in Tallinn Visser had reached the qualifying standard in five events (100 m, 200 m, 100 m hurdles, long jump and heptathlon); she chose to compete in the hurdles and the long jump, winning a bronze in the hurdles with a time of 13.01 s (-0.2).[12]

At the 2015 European U23 Championships Visser won a bronze in the 100 m hurdles. She went on to compete at the 2015 World Championships in Athletics in Beijing, China, finishing eighth in the heptathlon. She was also the start runner of the Dutch 4 x 100 m relay team with Dafne Schippers, Naomi Sedney and Jamile Samuel that finished fifth in 42.32 s in the final, but was disqualified for a changeover infringement.[13] In the heats the team had run 42.32 s, a new national record.[14] At the end of the summer season she finished third at the Décastar heptathlon in Talence, France.[15]

2016

At the 2016 European Athletics Championships 100 m hurdles in Amsterdam, Visser was eliminated in the semifinals. At the 2016 Summer Olympics heptathlon in Rio de Janeiro, she finished at a disappointing 19th place.

2017

At the 2017 European U23 Championships, she won a gold in the 100 m hurdles. "It was going well until the eighth hurdle and then it became kind of messy. But I am happy to finish first." said Visser.[16] She took a second place in the heptathlon at the Mehrkampf-Meeting in Ratingen (Germany), behind Carolin Schäfer.[17] In August, Visser finished seventh in the event with 6370 points at the World Championships in London.[18] The same month, she won a gold in the 100 m hurdles at the Summer Universiade for university athletes.

2018: Heptathlon or hurdles

Visser at the 2018 European Championships in Berlin.

The 2018 season started with a bronze at the World Indoor Championship 60 m hurdles.[19] She had clocked 7.83 s to win her semi-final, obliterating Marjan Olyslager’s Dutch record of 7.89 s which had stood since 1989.[20] In consultation with her coach Bart Bennema, Visser had to make a decision about her future: the heptathlon or hurdles. With the 2018 European Championships in Berlin on the doorstep and given her chances of victory on the hurdles at that event, she decided to concentrate on hurdling.[21][20] In June, at the Diamond League in Stockholm, she ran a new national record in the 100 m hurdles with a time of 12.71 seconds, breaking almost 30-year old record of Olyslager from 1989.[22] She finished fourth at the European Championships in a time of 12.88 s.

In 2019, she started with winning the 60 m hurdles title at the 2019 European Indoor Championships in Glasgow. At the 2019 World Athletics Championships held in Doha, she finished sixth in the 100 m hurdles final. She had broken her own national record in the semi-finals, clocking 12.62 s (+1.0).[23]

2021

Visser successfully defended her European 60 m hurdles title at Toruń 2021 in Poland, improving her own Dutch record to 7.77 seconds. She finished fifth in the 100 m hurdles at the postponed 2020 Tokyo Olympics with a time of 12.73 s.[2]
