At her third Diamond League Final, Sha’Carri Richardson will compete in the women’s 100 and 200 meters, hoping to complete the sprint double to cap off a fantastic season.
World champion Richardson finished the season with the second-fastest 100-meter time ever at the US Track and Field trials, capping an accomplished and successful campaign.
Before Paris 2024, the American was undefeated in the 100 meters, and he was frustrated not to have won Julien Alfred of Saint Lucia.
Despite taking first place in the Olympic 4x100m relay, the 24-year-old focused on finishing well and returned the following year prepared to defend her world championship.
Richardson will wrap up her season in Brussels on Friday, September 13, where she will compete in the women’s 100-meter event alongside Alfred, the current Olympic champion, whom she beat in their first post-Paris race in Zurich last month.
The shortest track event at the Memorial Van Damme meeting is scheduled to feature Paris Olympians like as Cote d’Ivoire’s Marie-Jose Ta Lou-Smith and the British team of Dina Asher-Smith and Daryll Neita, the 2019 world champions.
Richardson will compete in the 200-meter Diamond League race the following day, where she will once more go up against Neita, Ta Lou-Smith, and American Olympic bronze medallist Brittany Brown.and then put an end to her lovely career, if rumours have it. There was no way to get through to her.
