well done.
But why is she hardly run 200m?
Shangelao VP Kambowe Because it is not her best event.
Jorge Flash Vazquez oh ok
S. F-P always remaining focused
All the best as you work towards 2021.
Congrats SFP!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽😎
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Some of you people are silly. She won easily in her first 200m season opener of the year at a low key meet. Her performance was better than what we saw from Thompson-Herah and Jackson last week. She did what needed to be done.
I still believe Thompson should be groomed for the 200m. Her longlivity is stronger than Shelly Ann Frazier Pryce.. Remember she’s the Olympic Champion for the 200m and she did it at 21 .66at World Championships in 2015.
Vonnie Payne even Kevin’s can beat that time ,nutten to write about
Her time 22.74secs
Putting everyone on noticed. Mommy Rocket 🚀 to the World.
Ummm not sure that would be considered a ‘competitive’ field. Anthonique Straun? Sashalee Forbes? Meh
Basically no contest! Weak field! Congrats!
