When does Sha’Carri Richardson compete in the Paris Olympics 2024? Dates, times, and schedule

Sha’carri Richardson is one of the athletes with the best chances of winning a medal in the 100-meter dash at the Paris Olympics. In addition to her incredible sports feats, the athlete attracts the public’s attention for her daring outfits and unmistakable style.

The 25-year-old Dallas athlete is one of the favorites for the Olympic gold. Her time of 10.71 seconds from this year’s US trials makes her officially the fastest woman in the world this year. This puts her on everyone’s list for a podium finish, although she did not qualify for the 200m. Surprisingly, she came fourth in the final at the United States qualifying competition.

The reigning 2023 Budapest World Champion began to emerge as an athlete at 16 years old, winning the AAU Junior Olympic Games. She has not left those podiums since, with the high point being her qualification for the last Olympic Games in Tokyo in 2020. Like her Team USA track and field colleague, Noah Lyles, Richardson has a bad memory from the previous games that she wants to erase and start a new page in her illustrious career.

A result that led to a suspension that prevented the Dallas native from attending the Olympics.

All those problems seem to have been solved, and Richardson will seek to win gold at the Stade de France in this edition of the most prestigious sports event.

The American sprinter will do two events on the track&field program, and this will be her competition schedule:
