By IANS News June 23, 2024 • 17:12 PM View: 640

The US Olympic: Reigning world champion Sha'Carri Richardson has officially booked her ticket to the Paris 2024 Olympics women's 100m with the fastest time in the world this year at the US Olymic trials.

The 24-year-old clinched the victory in 10.71 seconds to qualify for her maiden Olympics. She won the 100m at the trials three years ago but missed the Tokyo Games due to a positive marijuana test.

Melissa Jefferson finished second in 10.80 seconds, and Twanisha Terry came in third with a time of 10.89 seconds. All three will represent Team USA in Paris.
