2023 has been a standout year for New Zealand sprinter Zoe Hobbs, but as far as she's concerned it's not over yet.

With record breaking performances under her belt, Hobbs is brimming with confidence ahead of the world championships in Hungary.

The 25-year-old went under 11 seconds for the first time ever at the National Championships in Wellington in March, and since then has lowered her national record to 10.89 seconds.

Hobbs told sports reporter Barry Guy cracking the world scene in 2023 has been a big step in her career.
