Sha'Carri Richardson is bubbling with excitement ahead of the LA 2028 Olympics after her successful debut in Paris.
Sha’Carri Richardson is already thinking about the LA 2028 Olympic Games after making her debut at the Paris Olympic Games.
The reigning world 100m champion in an interview with Blavity TV, explained that her Olympic debut was quite a humbling experience and there was a lot she took from that. She explained that there was a lot of lessons to be learnt and she had a great time competing against great women.
Sha’Carri Richardson went into the Olympic Games hoping to claim her first individual gold medal but failed to live up to the billing. She was certainly the pre-race favourite but Julien Alfred had better legs that day.

'I’m not sure I want to do track anymore'- Junelle Bromfield uncertain about her future in athletics
Junelle Bromfield considered quitting track and field amid backlash from Jamaican fans and has yet to give the way forward in terms of her track career.
Alfred claimed top honours in a time of 10.72 seconds as Sha’Carri Richardson and Melissa Jefferson came in second and third in respective times of 10.87 seconds and 10.92 seconds.
She used the 100m disappointment to go for the title in the women’s 4x100m relay. After tasting Olympic glory, she is already looking forward to the 2028 Olympic Games on home tuff.
“Honestly, competing in Paris, at the Olympics, has been an honour, it has been humbling, it has been fun and I literally can’t wait for LA. I’m almost like jumping like three years ahead because this experience was something like totally unbelievable,” Sha’Carri Richardson said.
Sha’Carri Richardson has had a quite turbulent season this year, starting off with two 200m losses at the Diamond League Meetings in Xiamen and Suzhou. She then claimed her first win of the season at the Prefontaine Classic, the Diamond League Meeting in Eugene.
The world 200m bronze medallist then proceeded to the US Olympic trials where she claimed top honours in the women’s 100m, setting a world leading time of 10.71 seconds and later finished fourth in the 200m, missing out on the Olympic Games.
At the Paris Olympic Games, Sha’Carri Richardson took silver in the women’s 100m then later claimed gold in the relay. She got her sweet revenge over Julien Alfred with a win at the Diamond League Meeting in Zurich. She ended her season with an eighth-place finish at the Diamond League Meeting final in Brussels.
