American speedster Sha’Carri Richardson admitted she is like a baby in the 200m. “In this company, I feel like a baby because there are so many girls that have done a time of 21 seconds,” she told journalists in Brusells.

Richardson’s 200m personal best is 22.00 flat, joint 36th fastest overall on the all-time list, headed by Flo-Jo’s 21.34. Her best this season, 22.11, is some way off the leading pack.

Elaine Thompson-Herah, 21.53 and Gabrielle Thomas, 21.61, two of the fastest all-time sprinters, achieved their personal best marks this season.

Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, 21.79 (19th on the all-time list overall), Christine Mboma, 21.81 (joint 20th) and Shericka Jackson, 21.82 (22nd), also ran personal best in 2021.

Sha’Carri Richardson will be running the 200m at the Brusells Diamond League on Friday and is hoping for a special outing.
Richardson, who showed great speed earlier this year in the 100 metres, is hoping an enthusiastic crowd will push her to her first run below the 22-second mark.

“At the start of a 200m, I am just as eager as for a 100m, and hopefully, I can prove it with a fast time,” she said.

“My coach and I are working really hard to do well on both distances, so I really want to go below 22 seconds.

Sha’Carri Richardson’s personal best over 100m is 10.72 seconds.

  1. Lay off Benjamites! We never bad mouthed the Jamaica girls! We lOved and rooted for them! None of us ever said bad things aboUt Ottey or any of your runners! You run your jibs on little Sha’ cari like shes a dog! We re Judah, the tribe of Judah BenJamin! Show Respect!

  2. WELL HUMBLE DOES IT BEST WHAT DID THESE JAMAICAN LADIES DID TO HER WATCH ALL HER INTERVIEWS AND SEE HER ENTIRE ATTITUDE STINKS. THEY ARE ALL FEMALES WITH A TALENT

  3. Once you leaern to become humble then the pressure on you becomes less….then and only then will you be able to fully concentrate on what matters
    …your running

  4. I think the media and fans are adding fire to this making it her against them or usa vs Jamaica. She is being over hyped and when she doesn’t perform to the expectations there is a level of embarrassment. The girl has the talent to develop to where she will be as she competes more. She also need to turn that arrogant ego down a bit and show better sportsmanship when the end results are not in her favor.

  5. So true I don’t see why all the hype and talk but to be honest it’s working in the reverse. Cause I won’t Nirmal go out my way to watch and now I do to see her get her ass kick

  6. I know she will do great an the country proud, Put some ankle weights on those legs for a couple of trainings then take them off an Walah!
    do it again…then the day before race have them on next day, take them off! No1! Yw 😉😁
