Off-form Richardson dogged by domestic issues ahead of 100m world title defence
-
PARIS - Sha'Carri Richardson's talent is not in doubt as her stunning 100 metres world title in 2023 proved, but the American star is also like a moth to a flame when it comes to controversy.
The 25-year-old just cannot escape sparking headlines off the track.
Richardson was controversially barred from the delayed Tokyo Olympics in 2021 after testing positive for marijuana following her victory at the US trials.
She arrives in Tokyo to defend her world crown on the back of another headline-making incident.
She spent a night in jail after being arrested for domestic violence when she had an altercation with her boyfriend, fellow sprinter Christian Coleman, at an airport before the US trials in August.
She was scratched from the 100m semi-finals at the trials and failed to reach the final in the 200m, but her place in the team for Tokyo was assured as defending champion, although her best 100m time this season of 11.05sec leaves her way behind the favourites.
