STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOSNEW YORK - Sha'Carri Richardson is in her prime and leading the U.S. effort to break up the Jamaican reign of dominance over the women's 100 metres when the World Championships kick off in Budapest this week.
"I'm so blessed and thankful, I feel at peace," she told reporters after winning the Doha Diamond League meet in May in 10.76 seconds.Richardson kept a busy schedule this season and her record was unblemished until a second-place finish in the Hungarian Athletics Grand Prix last month. Days after that, Richardson took the top of the podium in 10.76 at Silesia Diamond League meet, two hundredths of a second ahead of Jackson.
Their rivalry - Jackson finished second behind Richardson at the Doha Diamond League - could produce fireworks in Budapest, where the women's 100 metres will be one of the most compelling events.
