In Sha’Carri Richardson’s own words: she’s not back, she’s better.
On Monday, Richardson took home gold in the 100-meter race at the 2023 track and field world championships in Budapest, Hungary, running a 10.65 to win in a stacked field. Richardson broke the championship record by 0.02 seconds and was able to best Jamaica’s Shericka Jackson — who had a time of 10.72 — all the while running from the outside in Lane 9 after barely qualifying in the semifinals.
