It's sprinting, super straightforward. How could your possibly choke in a 10 second race? You guys are idiots
You can't lose a 27 minute race in the first two seconds. You literally can't. You can fall down and still win.
You can start a 10 second race better than 99% of the world could and still lose it in the first two seconds.
Even the best starters have bad starts from time to time and it's very very hard to win with a bad start unless your an absolute top-speed demon (Lyles and Bolt)
Sh*t happens. It was a bad day to have a bad day. Pressure got to her a little bit. Still came away with silver. An individual Olympic medal.
She shouldn't dwell on it. Run a great relay leg. Then go find a DL and post a really fast time.
Seeing she continues to have the slowest reaction times in the field one gotta wonder if that has anything to do with smoking pot a few years back - Yohan Blake never won anything big again after started puffing also comes to mind.
She was easily the class of the field apart from Alfred. Turns out Alfred is a killer. She won it. Richardson didn’t choke, just got beat.
She ran 10.87 when she’s in 10.6 shape. Rain let up. Almost no wind. Wet track doesn’t affect that much. It was a choke. You can see it right out of the blocks. She froze. Literally.
How could you possibly know this? Seriously. When did she last run 10.6x? She ran off that in trials and then absolutely choked in the 200 in trials so that ain't mental if she won the 100.

Easy there putting Lyles and Bolt in the same category. Lyles is slow compared to bolt. Shoot, Lyles isn't even as fast as Kerley.
The sh!t talkers and haters need to post their verified sprint times and accomplishments. Sha’Carri handled herself with class after the race which cannot be said of many posters here. Julien looked dominant in the semis and everyone was running for second.
Richardson: High Expectations (she was the clear favourite going into the race, and many expected her to win gold) + Previous, Dominating Success + Underperformance in time and place = CHOKED.
Haha Americans think she was in 10.6/10.7 shape haha those Eugene times on that ridiculously fast track that should be illegal got you fooled as you will see when "9.8 Noah" gets rolled again by 3 meters.

Noah’s fastest time this year wasn’t even in Eugene.
Noah went 10.00 in Eugene last year and 9.83 at the World Championships.
I think you’re correct that Noah will lose, but he will show up and run fast. There is zero reason to think otherwise. It’s just that Kishane Thompson is too good.
But this should really be her 2nd Olympics, where "she beddur ". Takes the L. I think she has the yips--Can.Not.Start.--And it will get worse. Think she spent all that Bag from Nike already? 💰 very likely her friends and family are all in shiny upgraded trailers.
Yeah I know. Sometimes they amuse me with their dogmatic ignorance of the sprints. More often than not, I ignore them as sometimes the comments are just too stupid. No amount of providing them with another example will make a difference, I think.
I do hope she is able to work on the mental aspect of her racing or she will become another Asafa. She is just too talented not to be threatening the WR every time she steps on the track.
Another Asafa Powell? Come on, dude. If you’re going to call other people ignorant, then you shouldn’t make such a terrible analogy. Asafa never won an individual world championship like Sha’Carri has done. Asafa never won an individual Olympic medal like Sha’Carri just did.
Are you not aware that Asafa did not win any because he choked everytime in every final? He had the ability to win gold in some and at least silver after Bolt came on the scene. All it means is that he choked worse than Richardson did . This is not the first time Richardson has choked. If she does not handle her nerves she will continue to do this.
Did she miss the presser because she can only speak to Netflix? What other lame excuse, appeasing bs do we have? And Jefferson should have also been at the presser. Why enable Richardson?
She did not. You have to go take drug testing right after. You people need to cut this BS out.

Her whole life be slow reaction times. Cranking the Buddah just make you way Ain't Beddur. Still, got her Bag 💰
