Got to say after the bolt era, women have been more exciting than males. No offense please

[@craigjikumlambo1333]

I wholeheartedly agree, the world records in both the 100m and 200m were invincible for over 30 years and looked to stay that way for many more. until outta nowhere in the span of 2 years Elaine Thompson and Shericka Jackson just said "nuh-uh" LOL and now women's sprinting has come alive , I can even see Sha'carri getting 10.5s or lower in the future. plus I'm also interested to see what Syndey can do in the flat 400m once she's firing on all cylinders.

[@patobin2986]

Sydney may be adout to meet her match, next year, unless this fall champions get injured or retire from sport to birth a baby.

[@craigjikumlambo1333]

bro . . . she became the 10th fastest woman in the 400m in her 2nd race in the event, she is quite possibly the most promising athlete in the event currently @@patobin2986

[@rickwalters5066]

It's the truth

[@ajrocks12x]

The women have been more competitive and exciting to me. Never knew who was going to win.

[@christophermomnang]

Ta Lou has been so consistent over the years.

[@PhilipBegay]

Ta Lou.a good out standing sprinter 😅

[@johnsonanum]

What if Talou wins 100m gold at Paris this year, beating Elaine, Shericka, Sha'Carri, Shelly-Ann and Julien?

[@johnsonanum]

Talou might even break her own African record this year.

[@sylvia7447]

I’m excited to see a healthy Sha’Carri, Ta’Lou, Elaine, Fraser-Price, and Jackson match up. That would be epic and we would definitely see a world record set. I can’t wait!

[@lalib.53]

Florence was clean and the fastest sprinter. Everyone here knows this, they just pretend they don't. Pure soul, body, spirit. This trio is the winner. FloJo will be the best forever❤

[@sylvia7447]

Elaine is running like she’s coming for that #1 spot!

[@johnsonanum]

Elaine is the Queen of the Olympics, but her competition this year is so tough: three other athletes with recent 10.6 PBs (Shericka, Sha'Carri, Shelly-Ann) and many others with 10.7 and 10.8 PBs (Talou, Sears, Alfred, etc)

[@ralphchaunzyy]

She starts slow but picks up very fast like a flash. Very good technique

[@mistermilkman]

The scary part about it is she's only 23. She's younger than the other ladies were when they reached the speeds she's exhibiting now.

[@PhoneBypass]

@@mistermilkman not everyone peak at the same age. Usain bolt peaked at age 22, while Shelly Ann peaked at 35 for example.

[@mistermilkman]

@@PhoneBypass I understand that, but the ladies typically peak later. N her situation, she's getting better.

[@merfibeemused]

Shericka Jackson's primary focus for this season has been the 200m and more specifically attempting to break the world record. Her combat with Sha'Carri Richardson over 100m has been competitive and is definitely helping her speed work, but lowering her 200m times towards breaking the WR is clearly the prize she wants above all else .....every 100m podium position she secures this season is an added bonus

[@Shoggy56]

And Sha'Carri Richardson's primary focus is clearly on the 100 meters so let's not make excuses for Shericka's 'loss' here. They are both track queens in their specialty. Kudos to both of them.

[@merfibeemused]

@@Shoggy56 Of course and I totally agree that's what Sha Carri's main focus is, the 100m. But the point of my post wasn't about the 100m, but the 200m because that's what Shericka Jackson said is her main focus this season, she believes (rightly or wrongly) that she can break the 200m WR and her training has been specifically geared towards that one goal. Sha Carri Richardson is a brilliant sprinter but she's not specifically aiming to break the 100m WR this season, she's aiming to show that she's the best/fastest woman on the planet over 100m this season....and she's making a clear statement of that fact. Shericka definitely wants to beat Sha Carri over 100m but it's still not the primary focus because she knows she's in the best form of her career so as to attempt to break the 200m WR, she has zero chance of breaking the 100m WR season .... if ever. Sha Carri definitely has the potential to do it in a future season if she can keep progressing as she is currently doing 👍🏾

The 100m is more interesting given how close the competitors are. The 200m is a blowout for Shericka Jackson...

[@trackflo5085]

Only because she’s a 400m runner as well, which gives her insane endurance when she drops down to the 200m, the other ladies don’t do that which is why Shericka has zero current competition in the 200m .

Exhausted from doing what - running one sub 11 seconds race or running one sub 22 seconds race. Are you crazy. An English Premier League footballer (soccer) is on the pitch for 45 minutes then 15 mins break before going back on the pitch for another 45 mins. When it's a competition they may have to play for an extra 30 minutes. Which part of an 100m sprint makes an athlete exhausted? Are you crazy?

Tied 5th fastest women of all time, right now. It's obvious where both their focuses are. Who can beat Sha'carri in her best shape is Elaine Thompson Herah. She's not in the best shape this year, but her fastest 100m time set at the last olympics was 10.54 second only in history to Flo Jo's 10.49. She's the second fastest woman of all time.
