FAST, NOT FURIOUS: SPRINTER CHASING 100M GLORY

- Los Angeles

Richardson eyes some redemption

Three years after hitting rock bottom, Sha'Carri Richardson (pictured) heads to the Olympics poised to conquer the pinnacle of her sport.

The 24-year-old Texan arrives in Paris as the reigning world champion over 100m, and the fastest woman in the world this year with a brisk 10.71sec under her belt.

Factor in the relative disarray of her main rivals, and it's easy to see why Richardson is a heavy favorite to become the first American since Gail Devers at the 1996 Olympics to be regarded as the world's fastest woman.
