Team USA track and field roster for 2024 Olympics: Sha’Carri Richardson arrives

USA track and field Olympic trials concluded on June 30 at the Hayward Field Stadium. For almost a week, the world saw American athletes go neck-to-neck in competition to book their place in the Paris Olympics. The competition also saw several records being reset including the women's 400m hurdles world record.

The records keep getting broken and set, but very few rise back from setbacks like Sha'Carri Richardson does. The world champion was all set to battle Jamaicans for 100m Olympic gold at the Tokyo Olympics before she was suspended for marijuana usage, which she later claimed she took to cope with the death of her biological mother. A year later, she failed to qualify for the World Championships.

However, it has been a dream run for Richardson since the start of 2023. From winning her maiden international title at the Doha Diamond League to becoming the world champion, the 24-year-old proved her doubters wrong. Richardson stormed to a world-leading 10.71s at the U.S. Olympic Trials, and now, she is an overwhelming favorite to end a long drought of 100m Olympic gold for the USA in Paris.

Noah Lyles will headline USA's sprinting medal aspirations alongside Kenny Bednarek and Fred Kerley. Lyles is an overwhelming favorite for the 200m gold, but he will have to battle and battle hard with Jamaicans over the 100m dash. Kerley is a medal contender over the 100m and has hit top form ahead of the Paris Olympics. So is Bednarek, who clocked lifetime best timings over both distances at the Olympic Trials in June.

USA field events will be headlined by two-time Olympic champion Ryan Crouser, who is vying for a historic third consecutive gold medal. He is joined by his teammate Joe Kovacs, who would have the eyes on gold after settling for silver behind Crouser in the last two editions.

Grant Halloway is an overwhelming favorite for the 110m hurdles, and so is he for the world record in the distance. Rai Benjamin will headline one of the fiercest battles at the Paris Olympics over the 400m hurdles with Norway's Karsten Warholm and Brazil's Alison Dos Santos.

While Sha'Carri Richardson leads USA's hopes of a sprinting gold medal over the 100m, Gabby Thomas will battle the fastest 200m woman alive Shericka Jackson over the half-lap event. The two are the USA's biggest hopes of ending the Jamaican dominance over these events.

There's an event where the Americans won't be feeling nervous whatsoever; it's women's 400m hurdles. Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone lowered her world record for the fourth time at the U.S. Olympic Trials, and barring any unusual event, she may not just defend her Olympic gold at the Paris Olympics 2024, but break the world record again as well.

USA's gold medal hopes in the field events will rest on Tara Davis-Woodhall, Valarie Allman, and Katie Moon, all of whom are favorites in their respective events. Anna Hall will lead the Heptathlon competition.
