On a rainy Friday night in Paris, the U.S. women clinched a gold medal in the 4x100-meter relay finals largely due to the incredible efforts of anchor Sha’Carri Richardson.
Richardson ran an awesome final leg in the relay to bring home the gold for the U.S. women’s relay team, which consisted of Gabby Thomas, Melissa Jefferson and Twanisha Terry. In a race that featured mostly seamless handoffs for the Americans, Richardson received the baton from Thomas several meters behind her competitors, but she quickly made up the ground.
