Sha'Carri Richardson declares 'I'm not done' after disappointing finish
A defiant Sha'Carri Richardson vowed she was"here to stay" despite finishing in last place in a showdown on Saturday with the top sprinters in the world in her first race since missing the Tokyo Olympics due to a drug suspension.
Richardson, 21, gave a post-race interview on NBC Sports that went viral after she ran 11.14 seconds at the Prefontaine Classic in Oregon to finish in ninth place in a race that featured the three Jamaican sprinters who all won medals at the Tokyo Olympics. Reigning world champion Elaine Thompson-Herah ran a blazing 10.54 seconds to win the race in the second-fastest time in history.
"I’m not upset with myself at all," Richardson said."This is one race. I’m not done. You know what I’m capable of. Count me out if you want to. Talk all the s--- you want because I’m here to stay. I’m not done. "I’m the sixth-fastest woman in this game, ever, and can’t nobody ever take that away from me. Congratulations to the winners. Congratulations to the people that won, but they’re not done seeing me yet — period."The disappointing finish came in her first race since winning the 100-meter dash in 10.86 seconds on the same track at the U.S. Olympic trials in June.
