Although Sha'Carri Richardson is not competing on Monday, Aug. 5, she has demonstrated her skill and prowess as one of the fastest sprinters in the world during her debut at the 2024 Paris Olympics .
This is the first Olympics for Richardson, the 24-year-old Dallas native, after a one-month suspension ended her Olympic dreams in Tokyo in 2021. Since then, she has done well on the world stage, winning a gold medal in the 100-meter event at the 2023 World Championships.
She also qualified for the Paris games at the U.S. Olympic trials in late June with a time of 10.71, 0.09 seconds faster than second-place finisher Melissa Jefferson.
Here's when Richardson will be running at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
