What happened in the Women’s 100m at the 2022 World Championships?
After sweeping the podium at the Tokyo Olympics, Jamaica proved to be dominant once again at the 2022 World Championships, with the powerhouse trio of Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Shericka Jackson, and Elaine Thompson-Herah taking all the medals in Eugene. Fraser-Pryce, 36, earned her fifth 100m world title in Eugene last summer—no man or woman has won more than three 100m world titles.

Stars to Watch in the 2023 Women’s 100m:
Fraser-Pryce, a four-time Olympian, opened her season late due to a knee injury this summer but clocked in an impressive 10.82—the fourth-fastest time of this year—in her 100m season debut. Jackson, her compatriot and the reigning 200m champion, might be the favorite in Budapest this year. Thompson-Herah failed to qualify for the event after a surprising fifth-place finish at the Jamaican Championships last month.
Sha’Carri Richardson looks to make headlines in Budapest this year after running personal bests in both the 100m and 200m. The Dallas, Texas native, who will be making her world championship debut, will be joined by Americans Tamari Davis and Brittany Brown.
2019 world 200m champion Dina Asher-Smith (Great Britain), two-time 100m world medalist Marie-Josee Ta Lou (Ivory Cost), and 2022/2023 NCAA champion for the University of Texas, Julien Alfred (Saint Lucia), will also be in the mix for a medal in Budapest.
Which Americans are expected to compete in the Women’s 100m?
- Sha’Carri Richardson (Dallas, Texas)
- Brittany Brown (Upland, California)
