In the past few days, there has been an online uproar between USA National 200m champion Gabby Thomas and National 100m champion Sha’Carri Richardson on matters arising from their training camp.
In a video posted on YouTube by Raes Take TV, the YouTubers explain what really happened at the camp that led to the scandal. One of the gentlemen noted that Dennis Mitchell’s coached athletes showed up late to every training camp and that irked Thomas.
“It went from okay to now they are doing it on purpose. They also wanted Kayla Davis to run in the relay because now she is no longer with Dwayne Rossi and she’s now with Dennis Mitchell. They also wanted Twanisha Terry to run, Sha’Carri to run,” he said.
He added that Richardson made some comments because she thought that only athletes who run in the 100m race need to be on the relay. With that tension, they kept going late for the training and Gabby was unimpressed with the tendencies and confronted them for their behavior.
She even took it to her Tik Tok page saying: “If you’re beefing with me, you’re beefing with yourself because life is too short and I’m truly blessed to be stressed.”
The tension also led to more drama between two coaches, Mitchell and another coach, whom they did not mention. Things are currently not looking good at the USA training camp and hopefully they get it right before the World Championships in Budapest, Hungary.
